Sample a few of the recent threads. Then add a Cambridge or Audiolab transport and you're done.OR...……….Just get the Marantz SA-KI Ruby and be done. (See the review... | |
| Single output at amp, tri wire at speaker. Any benefit? First try running the main cables to different terminals on the back of the speaker, with the jumpers adjusted accordingly.
