Great vintage setup there which would be relatively low cost nice one! I do take exception to what you said at 8:10 where you stated that it's better to have more higher powered speakers than the amp. I see why you say this but it's actually better to have a higher powered amp than the speakers to allow for headroom so you don't get distortion going into the speakers which could blow them up! Distortion is far more dangerous than overall power for speakers fyi. Good video though.

Nice setup (the Marantz is the Jewell of your Crown). Just two or three considerations. First, change the speaker cables for other more decent (Amazon Basics is a good and cheap option). Second: if you want to upgrade your turntable, the cartridge is the key. An Ortofon moving magnet will be a must. Third: do NOT use the preamp included in the turntable. Just skip it and connect it directly to your receiver "phono" input. It is, given its date of release to the market, far superior than the cheap included into the turntable, trust me. Fourth: put the speakers onto stands. You have been quite lucky for getting all this gear for such little money. Unfortunately, things on E.Bay not always go so well. My congratulations. (I forgot it: It is more advisable to have MORE power in the amplifier than the one supposed to be admitted by the speakers. If the amp clips in a momentaneous demand of current, it sends D.C. to the speakers and this is the most common way to burn the tweeters. An usual mistake).

Should you have the urge to try the Reverse on the TT, make sure your cartridge can handle the stress or you may be shopping for a new cartridge. The power rating on speakers is not very important. Most listening uses just a couple of watts. The distortion levels of the amp are more important. It is distortion/clipping that will blow a speaker, not power. I have been playing with audio since the 60's. I can count my incidents with blown drivers on one hand and none were due to too much power. 1- A pair of Cerwin Vega 351HEDs (early '80s) needed the woofers refoamed/rebuilt as they disintegrated from age. Factory rebuilt them and they are still going strong today. 2-Klipsch Sub Woofer blew the driver. I replaced the driver and still had an issue. It turned out the amp had gone bad. replaced the built in amp and 10yrs later it's still going strong. The replacement parts were non-Klipsch drop in replacements. 3-Boston Acoustics HD5s. I have several of these bookshelf speakers and everyone, in different setups, had the Woofer surrounds fall apart. Poorly designed Woofer appears to be the problem, replaced the woofers with non-BA aftermarket drivers and again 10yrs later they're still going strong. That's it. Not one was blown because of too much power.

WOW you are a rare and welcome addition to the HiFi community, don't get many females into this hobby. It is a lovely set up and will serve you well. Easy upgrade path, change the rca leads you are using for some decent ones, Cambridge audio Pacific or Atlantic range cane be had for decent prices second hand and make a big difference to your system. I would also look at changing the speakers when funds allow, there are so many great value speakers to be had second hand of course, Mission 760, 780 or even their 751's also Quad 11L range, Tannoy, JPW minim or maxim's, Royd and monitor audio. There would be a big improvement if the bell wire your using to connect the speakers to the receiver was swapped as well, there are loads second hand and needn't cost a fortune to give better results.There is also better cartridges out there to get the best out of the AT deck, have a look at the Ortofon range, A/T themselves do some good ones too. In time as well I personally would swap out the T/T for older Rega/ Dual/Thorens/ Thecnics/ Sansui or the many other manufacturers. There are also better sounding cd players out there too, the list of which is endless from the likes of Marantz , Sony, Pioneer to name a few. If your still into this stuff how about an update and a review of how you have found the system, whether any thing has been swapped out?
