what can you get for your money

In the last post we looked at a quality system you can put together for 500 dollars. What if you have a $1000 to spend on audio equipment, well you can make a few upgrades. There are a couple of items we did keep though such as the speakers, the Klipsch bookshelves are an amazing value and we feel as though they keep up with this system.

$1000

• Amp- Marantz PM5005
  • Price – 499.99
  • This is our first step into what we refer to as Hi Fidelity
  • Dedicated phono stage
  • One con, is no pre amp outs

• Speakers: Klipsch Reference R-41m
  • price 169.99 per pair
  • best bang for the buck

• Speaker cable: Gear It cables
  • Price: 12.00-22.00 depending on length
  • work great, cheap

• Turntable: Music Hall MMF1.3
  • Price: 399.99
  • full manual
  • built in phono stage
  • belt drive
  • clean appearance

We have upgraded your system quite a bit over the previous set up. I think the mvp in this list is the turntable if you are into vinyl, the belt drive set up will reduce noise quite a bit.

In the next post we will cover a Budget of 5000$
