Seven

I have experience with the Rega Planar 1 Plus, as well as an older Pro-Ject table. You have nothing to regret about your purchase. The Planar 1 is a beautifully resolving package, and claims about the preamp being subpar are not worth your time. The Fluance TTs, in spite of their fans here, are not

This comment is spot on. You’re about to be very busy and mobile in the military. When I was in everyone had Walkmen and headphones and it was tapes or CDs. Been a long time now 😃 In my opinion, investing in some nice headphones with a good source that is small and mobile will let you hear great mus

i just bought this record player myself and it sounds great!, i also got this hooked up with bluetooth to my soundbar for now, im planning on getting klipsch the sevens. it does sound decent on my soundbar but if you want better sound quality it's definitely worth it to get speakers

It’s a good table. I too like automatic tables as I’ve had my Dual 1219 for over 20 years. As far as speakers go, for $1200USD (about £890) you can get Klipsch The Sevens which are fantastic speakers and have a built in phono stage. Just get stands for them and you’ve got a great setup

What is your total budget? You write, that you don’t want to upgrade and be set for some time. If so, the small speakers from those bundle deals won’t cut it, I think. The difference detween the Fluance are the phono carts. Ortofon is in my experience flatter / colder sounding, while Nagaoka is lush

That's all super helpful and makes a lot of sense. I want to stay with active speakers for simplicity. When I say loud, I don't mean eardrum shattering. :) I think I've been dragged down a bit of an audiophile rabbit hole when I started researching speakers. I know this is a KEF subreddit, but I won

So, one thing I see is that you don't seem to understand what warm sound means. I've never heard the Sevens, but they won't sound "warm" in any way. Warm means a bit more mid/upper bass, maybe a bit more lower midrange, and less on the high end. The Sevens are going to be on the bright side - this i

Well I'm sure they make better speakers than mine, but I use a pair of DCM time windows when I am utilizing the receiver or the turntable. Although they are very good by most people's measure. And if I'm streaming, I just go with a wiim mini that streams title to my Klipsch, the sevens which is a pr

Thanks for all your advices! I somebody recommended me the project debut evo! I might go with that one! As for now I dont have any amp and the marantz I was looking at is gone on ebay unfortunately! I got recommended the klipsch the seven speakers as it has a phono amp integrated! I was leaning towa

It’ll be subjective in terms of which sound signature you prefer. Unless a speaker’s response is broken at the design level, it distorts or your room / placement is a nightmarescape you need to treat or move around, there’s not a whole lot of objectivism in Speaker A over Speaker B unless you want a
