Hello everyone, been checking out the site after deciding I need to upgrade my system -lots of good info! Was pretty serious years ago about putting together some good sound then got off track. I have an ADCOM GFA-555 II amp which I would like to keep as a foundation. From what I have seen here and elsewhere it's still a pretty good piece of equipment. But my ADCOM GTP-500 II preamp lost it's tuner and my Infinity Reference Six speakers are falling apart (haven't been happy with them for years anyway!). I know it's a pretty broad request but just looking for suggestions on compatible preamps and speakers for the GFA-555 II, been out of the audio loop for years. Just starting the research and plan to do alot of listening in the near future. The speakers need to be pretty versatile as I listen to anything from Bach to Ellington to Iron Maiden and like to turn it way up when the wife isn't home. Like to run an occasional DVD through the system as well. I am definitely not an audiophile or high-tech guy, just like to hear good music reproduced as cleanly as possible. I figure my budget to be around 2000 US$ altogether.
I promise not to be a pain in the ass or take my keyboard and go home if I don't like the replies! Just need some up-to-date info and a place to start.

Thanks much.
....I don't think it's my ears, it must be the equipment.
