Hi Guys,
I am in process in building two setups - one stereo setup for Music Only and another one a humble HT setup. Most of items I have to buy when I come back to India after about three months. However, I am going to UK for about a week in April end (Easter time) :licklips: I would like to pick up some of the items from following which are feasible to be shipped/carried and makes sense to buy from there.
The HT Setup :-
-Panasonic 40" V20D Plasma
-Onkyo HTS 3300 or similar range
-Xtreamer Pro (Already bought)
-Tata Sky HD
The Audio Setup
-Marantz/NAD etc to be bought in India after audition. (upto 40K).
-Speakers (Probably BS maybe FS) matching the setup with amp in India. (Upto 40K)
-Logitec Squeezebox Touch (UK)
-Technics SL-1200 Mk II :licklips: (UK) not sure if to buy a new one or used one!
-Do I need a phono stage? I plan to buy an amp with MM connection. But point is that since I am going there does it make to sense to pick up one? As a future planning? Which one?
- LPs (UK)
Advise/suggestions from members on:-
1. Anything I am missing which should be in my list?
2. Any suggestions to the change of equipment in the same price range with +/- 10% changes?
3. Can anyone suggest as to where to look for these items?
Music Preferences : Rock, Pop, Trance, Soundtracks, Soul, little bit of Jazz & heavy metal and of course Hindi numbers! I have collections of FLACs & CDs. Its my first venture into vinyl world. :yahoo:
