  Did they really put an ad directly into the video? First and last time watching this channel.

  Lindo conjunto, mas fico apreensivo em deixar o toca discos encima do amplificador...., E as caixas poderia estar mais afastadas, num pedestal por exemplo.<br>Lindo conjunto de verdade.

  I have the exact set up except for the speakers. I’d recommend also adding a WiiM Mini to the amplifier so you can stream music to it. Lets you enjoy best of both worlds 😁

  I had a couple general questions about proper set up. I have a intergrated amp and power amp, turntable, phone amp, cd player and DAC. I skimmed through something that read that one needs to seperate the analog components from the digital components. &nbsp;How do I do this? I&apos;m using a 3(can add another shelf to make a 4)shelf audio rack. I figured turntable and phono amp on top, followed by both amps stacked, then the cd player and DAC on the third. Is that what is meant by seperate? Or should I buy a separate &nbsp; a whole new audio rack...one for analog and one for digital? Orrr...does it just mean I cant have my analog components plugged into the same power strip/ outlet as my digital components... or all the above. I will also have 2 subwoofers plugged in the power strip as well. I only have one outlet to use and will have to pull tricks to find an outlet on a seperate circuit but it can be done if need be. I have everything ready to go...just waiting on some power cables...and figuring out how to plug everything in lol. Great video..you seem like you know your stuff.. Any advice would be great.

  What an excellent video/set up. I hope you still monitor this channel because i have a question for you: I am familiar with those stereo receivers, but i am looking to go old fashion where the amplifier, equalizer were separate. Do you have any recommendation for a good sound set up? Thanks.

  Never place a turntable on top of an amplifier, integrated amplifier, or receiver because of the power transformer&apos;s flux, even if there&apos;s no audible hum. Furthermore, amplifiers vibrate (everything vibrates)...yes, the vibrations transmitted by the stylus of the turntable cartridge from the groove, occur in very small fractions, as small as the vibrations of the equipment, which must be kept separate.

  Do I need a ground cable going from the pre-amp to the amplifier or is grounding to the pre-amp good enough?

  Holy damn, I’ve spent less then the cost of those speakers for my setup! Facebook marketplace and Craigslist, get that shit cheap second hand.
