Coming out of the blackhole called work...retirement


Hello All

I have just retired and emerged from the mud of work that encompasses everything and acts light a blackhole for hobbies and enjoyment. Now that I am seeing some light I want to upgrade my 70's something stereo to something I can really enjoy. I read in a post from long ago about a preamplifier called a George Lightspeed. It was Australian, quality sound according to the posts and cheap. Is this something I want to consider or must I look at products in the thousands or 10's of?

You might want to spend time going through the Virtual Systems by room size and get an idea how we here on Audiogon have set up different rooms/systems...

Thank you freediver. I assume you are what your avatar represents. I tried until my ears blew. That was the end of that and scuba.

It doesn't omen well for an accurate assessment of each HiFi element. No wonder my 70's gear still sounds the same. crud.....

Amg56 - nice car. Be careful not to overspend. An unscrupulous dealer can see you coming a mile away. You do not need to blow 6 figures on this. You need more records!
