Parity
When digital came out in the 80s I was still on the side of analog. Simply sounder better than early digital. With so much good music not available on vinyl I finially purchased a CD player. Around 2010 when I decided to get back to audiophillia a... 
Dedicated circuits
Does anyone know of an amplifier that would require greater than a 15 amp curcuit?  By this I mean one that even for a mil sec would draw 15 amps? Unless of course it became defective hence the need for the breaker. Likely a 15 amp breaker will d... 
Cost break down of hifi system
Forgot to add: Source components should be commensuate with amplifiecation and speakers which are excellent IMO.  
Cost break down of hifi system
Given that you have speakers and amplification. The next step is to decide on the source components. What media will you be using? I would then get some budget cables and set the system up. Run it for awhile and get to know it. Adjustments inroom... 
Dedicated circuits
I believe in isolation of power to my audio system. I installed 3 dedicated lines for my system. I used 10ga romex for amp, 12 ga for preamp and another 12ga for digital.  I used 20amp breaker for the amp and 15 amp breakers for the other two line...

I am hoping the OP didn't get turned off by the immediate and quickly deleted responses such that he/she disapeared.     
The one time you want to pull out but she says no.
I am in a similar situation with my living room system. I am going to use the gliders from Herbies and the therapy as mentioned by @soix .

Check out Music Direct and Audio Advisor. Do you have an amplifier that you will be using with said speakers? The Pioneer BS-22 speaker sold for $130 when available. Possibly you can find a used pair. Wharfedale Diamonds also a good choice. Des... 
Has anyone gone from Tannoy to Zu Audio?
I have run my Tannoy Sterlings with an EL34 Line Magnetic 211ai tube amp and to my ears that amp brings a smoothness and clarity to the upper mids and lower  treble region that also seems troublesome with my hearing (sibilance) . I believe, though... 
Looking for advice
Does the Bluesound node have digital input to use with the Cambridge transport? I may be wrong but don't believe it does. Do you currently use a CD player?   
Right match
The question is: do you have a phonostage between TT and preamp line stage? Many preamps have an input that says phono however it is meant for an external phonostage.  A followup to that is: does the phonostage provide for low output MC cartridge...
