Solid integrated pre amp for beginner?


Hey --

So Im PUMPED because I just received in the mail my first turntable -- a brand new Rega P1 that I snagged on eBay (for $250 incl shipping - good price, right?)

Now I have to complete my setup. I need a good integrated pre amp (I'm looking to spend in the $100 range) as well as some good speakers (in the $200 range, maybe?).

Would love any suggestions or help. Looking forward to hearing it all together.

thx

Hello
I agree with Hoopster, Older Yamaha ca-600 or ca 800, I own both and they are very good, dont get the Ca-610 or ca-810 they are just ok, not great, In that price range a pioneer sa-737 reciever is good too, no ic chips and the sound is real good. If you can spend 400 to 500 get an Accuphase e-202 it will SHOCK you.
oh and theres the nad 3020
good luck!
