I too just bought my 1.6's and am using an entry level amp, mine is a 200 watt Rotel. I'm picking up my new Rogue Audio Perseus tube preamp tomorrow. I hope it mellows the Rotel enough to let me save for a "good" amp as Jimburger suggest. I was considering the Red Dragon Leviathon monoblocks. What do you think Jimburger? (sorry to cross your thread)
I've heard the Cambridge audio Cd players, they sound great and from reading their sheets (not that I know what all that means) they look to have impressive DA technology as well as good transports. The top of the line model (about $1400) also can upgrade other signal inputs through it. I'm new at all this so I don't quite have all the terms and understanding of this complex hobby down. But I think I know what I like.
