It

Hi all, my name is ben.
It's great to be apart of a steriophile, being that i'm a newbie

I've recently picked up a pair of Leak TL/25 plus amps, which i'm pumped about. PUMPED!

I was hoping to use the knowledge of the good people here to assist me in finding a speaker that are well suited to this fine amp.

I'm not fussed about floor or stand speakers, just in quality at a reasonable price.(Happy to spend if justified) For this reason i'm going for 2nd hand.

some speakers I've looked at and have been impressed with:
Proac response 2
kef 104ab

Hi All, I have a reconditioned Marantz 6110 TT coming and want to install a new cartridge once I receive it.

I was thinking on the Denon DL-110 since its in my price range. I currently have a Grado Blue on my Dual which I can move over to the Marantz but eventually I want to put the Grado on my Yamaha YP-450 and something nice on the Marantz.

Not sure what I'm gonna do with the Dual 521... maybe trade it in or put it away for a rainy day but I think the Marantz will be my new main TT and the Yamaha as my backup.

For those of you that don't cruise the entry level forum... I have been planing a DIY Rack for a while. My dad and I finally got started on it today.

The design is based off of SRA's Craz 4 rack.

We are using high quality maple for all of the wood on the rack and shelf supports. The Shelves will be 19x19in laminated MDF and will be connected to the rack by 3 downward pointing spikes.

I would love to hear what he has for his home system as well as his opinion on hi-fi equipment today.

I really enjoyed Michael Fremer's review of the Vincent 236 MK. A $1995 integrated amplifier that he says he would have never guessed its price and "he has been around this stuff for a long time". His conclusion about "proof of the law of diminishing returns" says a lot to me about the performance of this product and one in which I would now recommend to others. I am going to hear it as soon as I can and thanks for putting a review in real world terms.
