Hi, am am prety much all new to the hi-fi world, but I'm eager to get into it. As it stands, I only have Grado SR80's, and play music off of Nomad Zen Xtra 30GB (EAC w/ alt standard). I am interested in starting a home set-up for listening, but do not know where to begin. I'm sorry if this has been addressed previously, but I've been reading the forums for a couple of weeks, and most posts are above me or too esoteric; I don't have a starting base.
What I would like is a system where I can listen to my headphones on (speakers arn't nessacary). A CD player, of course, with a line-in so I can hook up my Nomad. I don't know anything really about what qualifies as a good CDP, because I've never had use for one (I used to assume they were pretty much the same
) Um, I don't know much about whether or not I would need an amp, or anything else, but that is why I am asking for help.
Also, as I am fairly young (18) and don't have much income, so budget is a very big factor! I hope this doesn't screw me over, but I would like any system that would just be a good starting point. As it stands, I've begun listening to music at a decent quality with my Grados, so my ears arn't so decerning yet...
I hope I havn't frustrated any of you veterans yet, I would just really appreciate any help or advice. Thanks in advance
