My old man is thinking of buying some Elacs: he's looking at the FS 210 Anniversary Editions.

Looks like you decided against the Rotel amp, but in any case I'm sure you'll enjoy your first step into real hifi.

Cheers,

Jimmy

It was too expensive for me plus the man gave me a large discount if I purchased everything from him, like cables, etc.

Yeah, the 210s retail for 6500CDN. Tomorrow we're listening to the Focal Electra 1037Be's.

My stereo is garbage compared to what he's going to pick up next

I gotta find me a dealer like that....

Once I get the gainclone done I've got to start looking for some decent loudspeakers. The Sui's are not terrible, but they are a little harsh for my tastes. I'd love to commandeer a pair of KEF K160's that my uncle has... I've been quite impressed with their sound, and they just sit in his basement most of the time.

He was just a bloke with a basement lol. He does up speakers/amps as a hobby and sells them.

PC Setup:

Logitech X230 2.1 on Creative X-Fi Xtrememusic
dbi pro 705 headphones for gaming and night time listening

Mobile:

Crappy generic mp3 player
Sennheiser PMX 60


I plan to upgrade the PC setup with Logitech X5300E's at some point. Sound card is obviously good to go for a while to come. The mobile setup will get upgraded with a Creative Zen 4GB or something. Not totally sure at this point.
