Newbie seeking advice

Has been years since I invested any time or money in a system and am basically starting from scratch. I have settled on a pair of Paradigm S4 speakers and am leaning towards a NAD C372 Amp. I would welcome feedback/suggestions on this combination and suggestions for CD. I have an old B&O turntable that I plan on resurecting as well. Be gentle as I am not the most sophisticated buyer. Appreciate your input. BTW the system is at least for now intended as a dedicated stereo only in a medium sized living room.

Which Integrated Amp Technology? Tripath vs. IcePower vs Tube Hybrid

Forums

I am thoroughly confused about which type of amp to choose for my desktop audio system. I will be adding a DAC and speakers to connect to my Mac to play lossless files in my home office.

I have been looking at the Kingrex Tripath Amp. I also found a few IcePower amps like the D-sonic and another from Denmark. Finally, I have been eyeing the Jolida 1301 as a hybrid tube/solid state device.

I launch this blog with two bits of news that should make all jazz fans quiver. A brief prelude: Three years ago, an archivist at the Library of Congress discovered, during a routine inventory, the long-lost tapes of a 1957 concert at Carnegie Hall by Thelonious Monk’s quartet featuring John Coltrane. The tapes were pristine. The music was glorious, Monk playing his most archly elegant piano, Coltrane his most relaxed yet searching tenor sax. Blue Note released the concert tapes on CD, to jaw-dropping acclaim.
