My suggestion is to decide how much you are intending to spend and then visit a specialist hi-fi dealer like Cloney Audio in Blackrock and listen to equipment in your price range. Buying something willy nilly [or because it is available] is seldom the best course of action especially for something as personal as a hi-fi system.
It's OK, if there is no bread I will eat cake.

Beware of a thin chef!

Thanks for feedback, but I think that if I decide on a product a may have to wait quite a while before something becomes available on the 2nd market in Ireland.

Also, I wouldn't feel that comfortable going into Cloney Audio to listen to equipment that I never have any intention of buying from them. Maybe I should get over these feelings!

Prolle, you could start the system with a top quality preamp :-)
Line level Meridian 502 with MSR remote control, asking 550 euro. Its a superb preamp, fully balanced.
