A college grad present to myself last year, this is my first "high end" system, though the Marantz CDP is leftover from an old system. Will get around to dealing with that later--I want a big upgrade on speakers first. Though the 106s are enjoyable and great for the price, I know I can hear more from the Gyro and those amps.

The JJ 243 pre doesn't seem to be very well-known in the US, but I have to say I'm very impressed with it. It's so smooth and airy, with a very nice all tube phono section--I prefer it to all the Conrad pres I auditioned. It's worth checking out if you haven't!
