phono stage/preamp project the classic superpack help with set-up please

Hello,

I’ve inherited a wonderful vinyl collection from my dad and am saving up for a set-up to appreciate them properly.
Unfortunately my technical knowledge is not great, I’m just a music lover and hope you can help me.

I am thinking of buying the following:

Project the classic superpack (£1400)
Project MaiADS2 amp (£800)
Bowers & Wilkens 603 speakers (£1250)

Do these hold up to other options in this price range? This is the absolute top of what i can afford.

I am also wondering if I need to add anything to this, like a preamp? Or is the MaiADS2 all I will need?
If I need a preamp or anything else, what would you recommend?

Many thanks in advance!

Sounds like you should wait and see exactly what your Dad has in the attic!  Could be some real gems and you might find it very satisfying to restore some of the equipment.  I have a close friend who, like you, shared a love of music with his father. To this day, he still uses his dad’s beautiful Marantz 7c preamp and 8b amp.  
Let us know what’s hiding up there and I bet you will get some good advice on what to do with it.
