Hi guys I'm looking to upgrade my audio setup, Currently for regular listening I have my pc(auzentech x-plosion sound card) outputing via a 3.5mm jack to an old school sony receiver (STR-V35) which I have driving a pair of Tannoy speakers, and I use the 1/4" Headphone out for my Grado Sr-325i cans. I also have a Stanton T52 Turntable hooked up to the receiver.
For around 300-500$ I am looking to get the best sound out of my headphones and speakers (headphones are more important) and I'm unsure what exactly I should be looking for. Originally for simplicity sake I wanted to try and find a decent receiver (either av or stereo) that could do all in one (also I could hook it up by toslink) but from what I've read here hp output on receivers is guess work to try and find a good one.
Can some suggest a better setup for/combo that will sound good with the Grado? I'm really interested in Tube amps, and if the equipment is good enough quality I'd be willing to look at used equipment as well in that price range.
