So after discussions with my financial advisor (and gorgeous wife!) have been given the go ahead to start upgrading my system in the next couple of months.
Hopefully this will involve getting new speakers, amp/streaming amp and turntable plus various bit and bobs.
Most of my listening is done via Spotify connect and Vinyl but I have the telebox connected as well.
Most of my current kit will be moved up to my bed room all except the BK sub and the speaker stands.
My budget for this is between 10-11k and have already started looking around various sites and shops. I would prefer to buy local and if possible all from the one place so that I get the chance to dem it all together, and possibly get a better deal.
So for your perusal and consideration a ( not definitive) list of components that I'm considering.
TT - Rega Planar 8, Gyrodec with technoarm, Origin live Auora or Calypso with silver arm, Vertere DG-1, Acoustic solid 111 metal and EAT C sharp/ major.
Was thinking of dipping my toes into the world of the MC cartridge but looking for some advice/pointers with this.
Amps - Lyngdorf 1120, lyngdorf 2170 + streamer, Moon Ace amp/streamer, Moon 240i + streamer, Rega Atheos/Elicit-R + streamer
Speakers - Fyne audio 700s, 701s, F1-5s (made just down the road from me), Dynaudio special 40, PMC twenty 22i, Focal Kanta No1s and B&W 705 signature.
As you can see the worm hole has opened, just looking to get a well balanced clean sounding system with plenty of clarity across all ranges but also not to cold and clinical.
My room is around 4.5m × 5.5m and I've attached a picture of where the system will sit.
Sorry about the length of the post but as my Great great Uncle Tolstoy always said " why use twenty words when a thousand will suffice!"
Looking forward to your advice/comments/ridicule
