Well....I hadn't really allocated funds to this purpose from my primary Recording budget of +/-$3000....
.....but lets say I wanted to, or should I say would be able to put $1500-$2000 into it.....just for conversation sake......probably closer to $1500....
If you want to put that much into it, i'd just say perhaps start over.
I just spent that much and have this setup, I am 110% thrilled with it.
Oppo DVD Player - Transport - $120 refurb
Music Hall Mambo - Integrated Amp - $580 used
Von Schweichart VR-1's - Speakers - $425 used
Nick's Picks Cables (coming soon) - don't remember
Thorens Turtable - $50 at a thrift store, this thing's a beast.
The only thing I'm lacking is a good phono pre and a shelf. I love how this sounds though.
