Hello everyone

My first post here. Very recently I have become obsessed about audiophilia and exceptionally realistic sound quality from various sources (car system, portable audio player, etc). Now I am looking to buy my first ever audiophile equipment for my lounge (home), and budgets are limited. Can you guide me to the cheapest way of entry into audiophilia? I am not mentioning any price range because I have no clue about the cost of the cheapest equipment I can get new that counts as Audiophile grade!

Cheers

I auditioned a pair of Paradigm Reference Studio 100s through a Rotel RC1070 preamp & Rotel RB1070 amp. I was very pleased. I am curious as to the difference powering the Paradigms through the Rotel RC1082/RB1080? Has anyone had any experience with the Rotel RC1082/RB1080? Thank you.

are tube amps better than solid state amp?

I saw a comment on AA relating to Art Dudley's December column and I wanted to see what it said, so I started a digital subscription. AFTER I made my payment, I discovered that, depending on which part of the confirming email you read, it either takes 2 weeks or 6 to 8 weeks to start a subscription. Assuming the 6-8 weeks reference is really for print, that means it takes the Circ. Dept. two weeks to send me an email with the URL where I can download my first issue. That's very strange; it only took them 5 minutes to ding my charge card.
