New member Username: SimonoaksPost Number: 1 Registered: Nov-04 | Hi, I have for the first time in my life decided to buy a (what I hope to be) resonable good HiFI system. read up about it on net (this site has been good), and just visited Richer Sounds. I am thinking of going for CA 640A and 640 C with Marantz TT42, M/s 914 speakers (£249.95), and ULTRA100 cable (£4.99 per metre) and Studro cable (£39.95). Can anyone tell me if this setup is good, and if I am using the correct speakers, cables etc for this kit. Very new to this so would appreciate advice. many thanks Simon |

Richer will have advised you to the best of their ability and they understand their systems well. Go with the recommendation if possible. If you've heard the system, then check what cabling they used and try to get that. Cables make a massive difference to systems - ignore them at your peril. regards, Frank. |
