Too many to list individually but many thanks for clearing this up for me and putting me on the right path, greatly appreciated. As much as I love the look of the sixes I think I'll be keeping the amp and sending these back and spending the return on something else without the bells and whistles which I don't require. Thanks again!

The punt = gambling on the near wall to wall 24/7 horse, greyhound and trotting races we have over the pond here 👍

Australia mate. I figure you ask because of the price, if so, would you believe I actually had a $300 voucher which knocked them down to the above price.

Hi everyone, rookie here and just after some advice. Anyway, had a great night on the punt last week and figured what the hell, let's finally listen to all this vinyl(as opposed to the cd I'd buy at the same time) that I've collected over 20+ years. 95% of it fits into the punk rock genre, ie. Fatwreck, epitaph, lookout, dischord, nitro labels, etc etc. Being that there's no nearby hifi store and being one that's not exactly reckless or risk avoidant, I dived into some online stores and then cross referenced things with google/YouTube reviews. I ended up with: Debut carbon Evo w/2m Red Rotel A11 Tribute integrated amp Klipsch The Sixes Speakers Now I'm positive there's no issue with the turntable and amp combination but having done further reading I'm now second guessing my choice of speakers. Because the speakers have a built in amp and I don't intend to add a CD player at any time, should I have just purchased a phono pre-amp instead? I say that because I understand the inbuilt phono amp is rubbish. Is the amp basically useless now bar the phono? I spent $900 on the Rotel, $750 on the turntable and $1300 on the Klipsch sixes, this is all Australian dollerydoos. Ive opened the Rotel but understand I can return the amp with no penalty. The speakers which arrive in a couple of days, not so much. If you've made it this far down, I thank you and sorry for the long post. Yesterday I was confident but now having gone down the rabbit hole I'm second guessing myself or having a light bulb moment so before I stuff up monumentally I'd appreciate any feedback or suggestions. Cheers
