i used to have k forte .i used nad reciver sound was pretty good.the 98 db will let you use almost anything my problem was to tame the fatigue of the horns .your best money would go for a new cd.the old one plus the horns would drive me crazy but that's a matter of taste.rotel makes great cd at good prices also adcom ,the gcd 700 changer is very good also nad has good cd players at your price range ,you can play with the cables latter.i would stay away from silver if you have hoens let your ears be the judge .good luck
TO upgrade or NOT, that is the question!
I have an old Onkyo Tx-7000 90wpc. reciever that is 15 yrs. old. This was the top of the line model at that time. My question is would i get better sound quality from a newer integrated amp? I just listen to music cd's, no ht or surround. My system is Klipsch reference 3 mains (98db.) and M+K V125 sub. Listening area is 14x21 Cd player is Sony CDP-CX210 (kinda cheap but i like it). Speaker wire Monster 12 ga. time correct, Monster Interlink 400 interconnects. Here's the kicker, i only have $500 to $600 to spend. Please give me any suggestions that would be helpful. I'm just a novice looking for advice, Thanks Please list make and model #'s if you have integrated amp suggestions please
