• Ah. Thanks for the replies, much appreciated. I have some new names to google. Realise my post was a bit ambiguous. The P3 will continue duties in the living room, I only mentioned it for context. I will need a new turntable.

    Proximity to the wall could be an issue. As might cables in general?

    By nature I'd favour simplicity over features. This will be for vinyl only. Exclusively morose dad relaxation.

  • Quite a small budget these days but this is a system of components I have had in different configurations except for the amp which you could change within budget.

    Rega P3 (older 2nd hand), Nad PP2, Q Acoustics 3020, smsl sa-50.

    The same system with an old sonos amp makes a reasonable streaming system.
