Hi,
Due to space restrictions I'm looking at the most simple set up of a turntable and active/powered speakers for a total of £500.
Speaker-wise I've been looking at the Ruark MR1s and the Roth OLi-POWA-5 which seem to produce sound of a good enough quality (judging by the reviews I've read on whathifi.com )
For the turntable I have nowhere near enough room for a standard size amp so I guess a turntable with either a built in pre-amp or a small phono pre-amp is needed?
This will sit on a very solid unit in my dining room. It's not a den or a listening room so super-duper hi-fidelity is not required at this moment. Well, until the kids move out and one of their bedrooms eventually becomes my bolt-hole...
However, I need something space-saving which ultimately has a quality to the sound that will tide me over for a few years. Build quality and durability is also important.
Oh, and they need to be white
Any help and advice would be much appreciated thanks
