Hi,
As the title suggests, I got my hands on an old Philips FWD-17 Speaker system for free from a friend who has realised that she had it sitting in a box somewhere ever since she upgraded to newer systems. She is giving them off to me, but also suggested that I look into buying a better pre-amp for the speakers than using the pre-amp that has been provided to us by philips because she believes we can get more fidelity from the speakers. I'm new to the whole thing, this is going to be my first speaker system with a pre-amp even, so for me it is like a big upgrade from my rusting, and almost battery dead JBL Go 2 that I've been somehow using every day. Please let me know if anyone has any insights on this system, and what would be the best use case scenario for the same. I'm attaching a few photographs to just add that to the documentation here
