Thanks to anyone on the forum willing to respond. Since I'm a noob, I apologize for any improper use of terms. Feel free to correct me.
I just purchased my first Hi-Fi system (maybe you all would call it mid-fi... or lower). It is an Emotiva XDA-2 to an Emotive XPA-200 with a set of Maggie Super MMG's - Emotiva interconnects and speaker cables. I'm really enjoying it so far. I have the room to let the Maggies do their thing, and both detail and imaging are in a totally different league than I have been used to.
My source is an iPod Classic with lossless rips run through a Pure i20. I'm wondering if there is a CD player out there for a system of my budget (you can see that I am on the low-budget end of things) that will sound fine, as well as interface both my iPod and iPhone 6.
If anyone is willing to chime in on a further question, where would the first place you think of to have real improvements for upgrading this system? Pre-amp? DAC? Cables? Power amp? I think the speakers are definitely the strongest link.
Thanks!
