I have an NAD Receiver C 715. $500.00 I am actually running Klipsch Quartets with this little receiver 25 watts. You can get some smaller Klipsch speakers w/ horns in them fairly inexpensive. The unit sounds great, has a CD player, sub out, tape loop for recording, audio in and out, aux in, remote control, usb, phones, mb, AM FM, bass and treble controls, radio text scrolling the station and name of song and artist, and more! Try to get speakers w/ 92 or more sound pressure level.
Simple System for a Super Senior?
I'm wanting to put together a system for my 80+ year old dad. The requirements of the system (CD, AM/FM) are: under 2K (used OK), easy to operate, remote comtrol, small foot print for speakers, cool running. The tonality should probably error on the side of brightness, as there's some hearing loss involved here. Considerations to this point are an Arcam Solo, Linn Music Classik and (your suggestion here.) Other thoughts are along the lines of an NAD receiver and Oppo player. Not sure about the speakers; have entertained some Totem Arros or Quad 22L's. Mind you...the man has never owned a high end or mid-fi set up, and he positively drools when he visits and listens to my system. Time for him to have this kind of joy in his home. Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
