Bought a system without auditioning, thoughts?


Long story but I ended up buying a system without auditioning a single component and haven’t set it up, what are your thoughts? Technic SL 1210 GR, nagaoka mp-500, eversolo dmp-a6, pass labs xp 17, pass labs int-250, klipsch forte iv, Cardas clear Cygnus speaker cable, Cardas clear interconnects, Cardas clear Cygnus phono cable.  I know I don’t need the int-250 for the klipsch but got a great deal.

It's all good gear by the piece, nothing too peculiar. I would think it will sound very nice together.

 

A modest-output class-A solid state amp should be able to drive those Fortes with ease (you haven't mentioned wanting tubes, which could also do well with the Fortes, but probably beside the point.) A Schiit Aegir or Musical Fidelity A1 or a Sugden would all fill the bill well. An Accuphase class-A integrated would be an excellent choice, but for significantly more money.
