Re:

I'm just putting a simple system together for my son who has just moved into his first flat.

The flat is part of a converted church, so stone floor carpeted are the order of the day.

He said he wanted a turntable and plenty of connectivity. Connectivity? Yeah, computer, phone, tv, Spotify etc.... Errrrm.

So internet searched and found 'streaming' which as I haven't dabbled with HiFi in many year was completely new.

In the end, after listening and searching, I have gone with a Pioneer XC-HM82D, linked up to some Monitor Audio Bronze 2 speakers on stands.

The turntable; I was going to gift him my heavily modified Rega Planar 2 until I spotted a Planar 2 without tonearm for sensible money. It turned up in perfect condition, so I tried a couple of arms I had here and settled on a Systemdek Profile with an Ortofon OMB5 (also from stock).

I carefully set up the tonearm, tried a few of my test records and then a few of my own vinyl and I have the say it sounds great, maybe not quite as bright and clear as my own deck, but for a first turntable I am well pleased.

Installation will happen in a months time, as this is his birthday present (and Christmas... and next birthday).

Re:

Minimalist British Ion Obelisk, bought in 1989 for about 200 pounds when i was an apprentice, only about 35w output i think. I have newer more expensive and powerful amps but this sounds the purest, it's wonderful. Maybe the best 200 quid i ever spent.
