New to Hi-Fi and the forum
« on: November 01, 2010, 09:41:03 PM »
I just picked up a set of speakers and receiver from Vintage Hi-Fi this weekend to go with my new turntable and Tom recommended that I stop by and say hello.

I am completely new to all of this and hopefully I will get to meet some of you around the store / on here and begin learning at least a fraction of what I may need to know.

Thanks for the warm welcome!

I got the Klipsch KSB 3.1s and a Sherwood RX-4105 from Tom and paired them with a music hall mmf2.2 and musical fidelity x-lps (& x-psu) phono preamp.

I am confident that an SL-1200 is capable of outperforming turntables of much higher expense with minor modification.
