Replace the Lintons with either Legacy Signature III or Focus. Both are high efficiency speakers that only need 35 watts (but good current) amplification. They cost between $1500-2200 (Sigs) to $2500-3000 (Focus) used. Big sound, big dynamic range and excellent frequency range. GroverHuffman cabling (high end at moderate cost). Used gear galore to use with those speakers. Used VPI turntable/arm with a Dynavector 20X2 H cartridge for the table which will work with a wide range of MM phono stages. A Denon 1500 or Kyocera 310/410 CD player for a few $100s. Under $10K easy to get great sound, used. Room treatment/power to equipment though will make a big difference Stick mostly with solid used equipment at a big discount to new (except for the cartridge).
A rookie with 10K, seeking advise
I'm new to the HiFi world. I listen to a lot of female vocal and classical music. I like both digital and vinyl. I am using a pair of Wharfedale Linton heritage and PS Audio Stellar Strata.
I know this is too broad a question, but with 10K budget, where can I wisely spend my money? I don't mind tubes and I don't mind used either.
Any advise is greatly appreciated!
