Hello all...I'm new to this forum, and the specifics of the audio world. I just started collecting vinyl, and I'm looking to find an amp to pair with my kenwood turntable and Boston A-70 Series II floor standing speakers. The amp would be used mainly for vinyl, so I'm looking for one with a good phono stage. Also, I'm on a tight budget, so I'm trying to spend 60 dollars or less on ebay (including shipping). I know this is being picky, but does anyone have any suggestions? It'd be greatly appreciated... |

then buy a cheap phono stage for like 30 bucks.lol.
It may sound crazy but at least it would work, and sound somewhat decent I guess. Maybe. I dunno for sure. Im just throwing out a quick idea. 60 bucks is hard man. Ok im leaving now.haha |

used audio dealer, pawn shop, or craigslist. Cant really recommend an amp cuz theres too many variables. Budget being the biggest. |

Good suggestion Vader. I love those A70's Erik, if you ever want to get rid of them you know where to find me! Hey, I just bought an excellent Sansui 6060 and it sounds excellent with my Boston's...cost $75 shipped. Better yet keep an eye out on Craigslist...found a Sansui G5000 for $30. Believe me both of these pieces sound excellent. Good luck Erik. |
