Actually, I didn't buy the amp first. I upgrade an old (15 year) amp. I used to be in the industry and had 5 pairs of speakers floating around, so I thought that one pair would work. But after 20 years the technology is so different and the fact that I have not stayed on top of it nothing sounded good. Yes, it now appears backwards, but this was something I did not expect. I am currently listening to Joseph 7 and Alon Capri. I have even taken apart one of my own speakers to see if I can do anything with it. As for budget, the room size tends to impose an ad hoc budget in the area of 2000 give or take. However, if I find something a little more or less then so be it. I am after the sound and hope not to touch the system again for another 10 years, except to play with wires. Many thanks for your comments. Always appreciate other's experience. Cheers!
Speakers for Conrad-Johnson MV-60
Yes, there is music after children. I am getting back into the game and upgrading my system. I never thought I would replace my speakers but they sound dark with the new amp compared to what is available today. They were from NY Acoustics and made 15 years ago. Very musical and accurate 2-ways. The system that is taking form consists of CJ MV-60; Stan Warren buffered line stage; still playing with CD and am open to suggestions there too. Listened to rega planet 2000, creek 43mkll and rotel 1070. Trying out Audioquest Viper for current speaker and CV 4 interconnect. Room is in basement 12x26x8. Thanks for the input.
