RE: New system advice

having the tubes in the preamp section of the Sphinx is a good thing IMO, one can roll some varieties in there to flavor the sonics. There's some really nice things being said about the Sphinx in various places, and it should drive about any speaker you get to (more than) reasonable levels.

I donno, in the 80s you still had tubes and SS amps etc., but yes, phono was still the main source (along with FM, tapes, etc. ...). I don't know that things are 'easier' at any time, there's still lots of options and things to consider!

Some say THIS is the golden age of audio! I can't disagree.
