PeppyBeachChris Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Hey guys, New to this site, recommended by one of yours ( thanks Ronnie) Getting back into vinyl after 30 year layoff but thankfully kept all my vinyl. System currently consists of Denon DP30L turntable with Ortofon, Marantz 2275 receiver and fairly ordinary Jensen towers. Looking for any advice on speakers to match the Marantz, prefer older speakers such as Yamaha NS500M or the like. Budget about $1500, large room prefer floorstanders. Thanks!

TheWretchedWorld Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) Welcome to stereonet. Thats a nice setup you have there. Those marantz receivers are really something special to look at and i'm sure it still sounds great after all these years. I've had a lot of experience with those Denon Direct drive turntables of the late 70s and early 80s (I currently own a DP60L) they are fantastic and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone.

PeppyBeachChris Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 Thanks Wretch, Yeah, I really like the setup so far and I flicked the speakers and bought some mint Krix Lyrixs so will see how they go with the Marantz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWretchedWorld Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Good score. They should pair nicely. That Marantz will have plenty of juice to drive those speakers with authority Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
