Hi everyone,
I just inherited a set of Sony SS-MF515 speakers and I'm thinking of getting a vintage amp for them.
I already have a nice yamaha rx-v575 reciever with polk audio rti a7 tower speakers for my living room. This would be for my office, and I work from home, so it might get more use.
I prefer a warm sounding amp as I listen to mostly Norah Jones/Mazzy Star type of music, and some 80/90s rock (U2/Def Leppard).
I'd prefer an amp with ambient lighting ( VU meters, or a backlit tuner).
I'd like to keep the budget under $250 if possible. While I could spend more, I'm extremely cheap and would prefer not to.
What are some suggestions? I'm really confused and don't know where to begin.
Also, are these speakers crap? Should I be getting better speakers?
