I want to get a hi-fi system. Turntables, boxes, amplifiers. I would also like to be able to play music from my mobile phone / laptop via the system via aux cable.
Does that go through the amplifier? Or do I then need another component?
Does anyone have any recommendations?
Just wanted to say that so that others can help you better, is it important to you to buy a branded product or is it just important to you that the properties are generally correct.
So I don't care about the brand. I like to listen to a lot of music and I want good quality. Which brand does not matter.
Up until a few weeks ago I had my father's Philips system, but he'd need it again, so I'm now looking for something of my own.
You say the tone and stability are important, the rest does not matter
Do you want to buy individual components or a compact system, and what can you spend on them?
The best would be an amplifier or a system that supports Bluetooth reception.
Yes, you can do this with a suitable adapter cable - provided your mobile phone has a headphone output. You then only need an adapter from jack to cinch.
There are various modern amplifiers or surround receivers that also bring Bluetooth aptX with them, so you can also listen to good quality music wirelessly through the system. Depending on the smartphone, you may also need Apple AirPlay. Theoretically, you can retrofit this function in older integrated amplifiers with "Bluetooth receivers" or the like. The advantage of this is that you can get a very good integrated amplifier on the used market.
Only new devices with a phono connection for a turntable AND with "modern connectivity" you will have to look for something, but there are also.
The integrated amplifier "Quad Vena II Play", for example, would be good. Please do not save money, especially with the speakers - in my opinion, this is where you can achieve the most in terms of good sound.
Yes exactly.
I thought that individual components might be more useful. In itself, I wouldn't have anything against an aux cable, but Bluetooth would of course be useful, you're right!
Oh and because of the money… Well, I want something that I can have fun with. How much would be realistic if I got the stuff used? Do you think you can get there with 200/300 euro?
Thanks for the detailed answer! Bluetooth would not be a must for me, my cell phone has a headphone output and you can probably save money if you do without Bluetooth. Then I can spend more on the boxes.
If you are looking for something on ebay and you don't have high standards, then yes

And how about the appearance, cd work, bluetooth, etc.
Ufff just looked at the amplifier and saw that it was still used at 600 euro. Maybe I should have said that I'm FSJlerin and can't spend that much now. I was hoping to get away with 200/300 euro. Is that unrealistic?
I know that the top is always open anyway…
Appearance: it doesn't matter
CD work: not necessary
Bluetooth: not a must
