I would love to get advice on building a primary an audio system and the same area would be utilized as TV viewing with surround sound.The emphasis is that I want a good audio system, I recently moved to a condo with a large room that has outside windows and hardwood floors that combines living room, dining room, and kitchen space together. I am starting from scratch and would like advice on what to purchase to acquire a good audio system. I will be listening to streaming music and cD's. Right now vinyl is not in the picture due to storage constraints in my condo. There is no echoing and the floors have area rugs and there are furnishings.
I listened to the B & W 804's but was advised these may be too bright for the room. I listened to the Ref Ref 3's which I enjoyed. Today I am listening to the KEF Blades which is very pricey. I was hoping to put together a good system for 30K or less but once I started diving into this, there seems to be no limit to cost of certain equipment.
I feel that the money would be best spent on good speakers and an amp but not sure which way to go and of course, dealers want one to buy the most expensive.
I am looking for advice to build this system and have no issue taking my time in doing so.
Any advice would be appreciated and considered carefully as I am starting with a base knowledge of zero.
Thank you for your assistance!
