Looking to buy a complete 2 chanel system

Sure. Let us know how it's sounding once you have it all set up and broken it in some. Thx

ATC speakers (40s, 50s or 100s), buy the "active" amped ones, use a Benchmark Pre DAC/pre-amp, linked to a Wadia 170/iPod, a nice mid-priced turntable and cartridge, and a Oppo multiplayer system.

Now that you have had some time w your emerald physics/spatial set up, do you mind sharing your experience?

About a year ago I was visiting thrift shops from Miami to Palm Beach and put together a system for less than $50.00 Yes that's right $50.00 At a Salvation Army Thrift Store found a Yamaha CR820 Receiver for $15.00 and at the same store a pair of Realistic Minimus 7 speakers for $5.00. Later that day at a Goodwill found a Sony 5 disc carousel CD Player for $10.00. In Ft.Lauderdale found at a St Vincent dePaul Thrift Store a Microseiki Turntable MB14 with a usable Audio Technica AT 96 cartridge for $15.00. So for a paltry sum of $45.00 had a complete system. Got it home and put it all together and was amazed at what can be had at a paltry sum. There is gear out there, but it takes leg work and luck to find it and with the state of the economy as it is now, a lot more of this type of gear is showing up in thrift stores. This was a fun excercise for me and I gave the entire system away to a school teacher that taught music and needed something like this. A year later nothing has failed and it is still going strong.

Very cool story. It is not about the rig, but the enjoyment of music.
