Adcom "B" stock amp into my NAD C340 integrated?


I'm trying to upgrade on a real tight budget. I wondered how much of an improvement I would get by running an Adcom "B" stock power amp (in the $500 range) thru my NAD C340 integrated, using the NAD just as a pre-amp. I assume the remote control would still work and give me that lazy convenience. I have a 14 by 20 room with cathedral ceiling and right now am using Spica SC-30 speakers (a Stereophile Budget Component of the Year, I believe, in about 1992). I will upgrade to a Triangle or some decent mini-monitor in the $1,000 or so range this summer. I'd like to find a pair of Spica TC-50s or 60s. I listen mostly to female vocalists and light jazz. Thanks!

The Adcom sounds like it would be a temporary step from what you've posted. Rather than spend money on this, why don't you lay out a specific plan of attack. You can do this by listing what your goals are for this system and then what steps or components will move you closer to realizing those goals.

All too often we get sidetracked by "good deals" on stuff that we really don't need or won't fit into "the big plan". As such, we end up spending money for "new toys" that really aren't beneficial to us. If we shop and plan carefully, we can come out WAY ahead just by practicing a little restraint. I know that this is hard sometimes, but you'll be WAY better off in the long run.

What i'm trying to say is that you should try learning from my mistakes : ) Sean
