How would you complete my system? Linn Ninka+?+?
Hi
I need buying advice. I am basically building a system from scratch. I have a pair of Linn Ninka's so far. I am looking to spend around $2000 on used equipment as to maximize my $. I basically need an amp and a cd player. I listen to all sorts of music both rhythmic and harmonious, - classical, rock, electronic.
Does anyone have the Ninka speakers?
Should I bi-wire with two amps? Will it make a big difference in the sound?
Can anyone suggest amp/premamp combos?
It will be in a big room with a big tv also, so i will use the system for movies too, although music takes priority.
thanks
Complete? Sounds like you haven't started
I'm not familiar with the Ninka's. Linn's Klassik is a nice all in one piece. They even have one now at about $2,5k that has HT built in. Naim is excellent gear but unless they have changed with the Nait, their gear is proprietary. Special connections keeps you limited to their other components. But that's a limit one could easily live with if they could afford the other components. Arcam has put themselves out of reach with a $5k pre/pro but their receiver has great sound quality.
I would recommend staying with solid state with the large variety of musical taste. In addition to the traditional internet used gear places you might check www.spearitsound.com under used/demos/specials
