New to Audio, Wharfedale and Mcintosh?
Hello all,
I'm new here so TIA for any comments. I've been looking in to setting up a component system for myself now that I am without stereo equipment (alas, the ex took it all). I've decided on getting some Wharfedale Diamond 8.4's as they are within my price point and was thinking of getting a Harmon Kardon 2 channel receiver to power them. Then, when I was home for Christmas, I found my dad's old McinTosh MA6200 integrated amplifier and thought, SWEET!!!
I haven't had a chance to try it out, but I was wondering, do you think 75 watts per channel would be sufficient to power floorstanding speakers such as these? Or is this something more appropriate to bookshelf systems?
Also, how import do you guys think that CD players are to the system suggested above. Will I hear a huge difference with a 200 versus way an 800 CD or not?
Anyway, I know that's a lot, but I figured if anyone could help, it'd be ya'll.
THANK YOU!!!!!
:)
