RE: More Confused Every Day

Howdy, and welcome.

You may have to help us out a little to get the best advice. How big is the room you're wanting to put this in, and how loud do you like to listen? Is spousal acceptance an issue (many ladies do not like to see large speakers in a family room or other)? What kind of sources need to be considered? LP? CD? Streaming? I would definitely advise the purchase of used gear. You will get a lot more bang for your buck that way. Many here are not fond of gear made in China such as the Yaqin. Although, Yaqin is one thought of more favorably than others.
