Arcam Solo Any thoughts


Was not sure where to post this question but thought I would start in misc. Im trying to put together a fairly low cost second system and thought the Arcam Solo might be a good place to start. Anyone have experience with this piece? i really like the idea of CD, amp and pre all in one. I am limited on space. Also what speakers and speaker cable are good match? Trying to put together whole system for around $2,500.00

Thanks

Hmmm ... what if the CD transport fails. CD transports are often less reliable than amps, and that has always put me off the all-in-one approach, like the linn classic.

If it were me I'd look for a separate CD player and integrated amp. A used Marantz CD67 or CD6000 with an arcam amp would be a good starting place.
