I got a Celeron 500 playing through an M-audio 24/96 card
through an old Marantz 1530 tuner into Mirage m-190
speakers, or Sony MDR-7506 headphones.

The phones are too accurate to play bad mp3s through, you
hear every artifact and swoosh. The speakers are more
forgiving but late at night eh, wuddyagonnado

I'm thinking of getting B&W 602 speakers and a Denon
tuner/amp with digital input, any thoughts on this?

i've got b&w speakers, there the best speakers you can buy!
i need to get a decent cd player though, i've got a cheap
and nasty Philips one at the mo!

Yeah I have yet to see a bad review of B&W speakers.... I
think I may get them before I get a tuner with digital in,
as the old Marantz is pretty faithful - maybe it warms up
the sound a bit which isn't a bad thing at all.

That would sound sweeeeet through my Ampeg V7 - it's kind of
an overpowered clone of a Fender twin. It has a clean tone
that could knock over walls. And nice dirt when you crank
it. I gotta get it modded to run el-34 power tubes instead
of those beastly expensive 6550s that burn out when you bat
an eyelash.

Aw who am I kidding, I pick up a guitar once a year at best.

I have a crap little amp that's sounds heavy as shit, which
is good for playing those house-shakin' Ironman riffs, but
for anything resembling a ''pop'' sound, a jangle, anything
clean... fuhgeddaboudit.

I almost bought a dreamy amp from my guitar teacher, but the
deal fell through... when I realized I had no money.

My first amp was this little Yamaha transistor thing that
was sooooo dirty sounding. It was great for playing punk
stuff like GBH and Flux of Pink Indians.

When I was a teenager I almost bought an ancient Gibson tube
amp that sounded great but I didn't like it because it had
no dirty sound. Couple years later I was kicking myself
because I realized how easy it would have been to get
modded.

Keep the marantz until your dying day or you'll regret it. I
moved from a marantz 2275 with a hefty 330w of tube power to
a Denon avr-1802. Although the marantz puts out pretty
amazing sound I've got to say the Denon does well for a
newfangled gadget. This is all through a pair of wharfedale
modus 1-6's or my phones.

well, it's quite small as compared to a regular egg, it says

just get reaktor by native instruments. it accurately models
the juno + hundreds of old rare synths. you can even design
your own if you have any knowledge of VCOs, VCFs, LFOs and
the like. the main advantage is it is controllable by midi!
:) so i can assign a knob to change res. or cutoff, etc. its
much cheaper than a room full of hardware.
