I am looking into building an entry level inexpensive system that starts to dip its toes into the audiophile realm. I have noticed that on the Entry Level that both the Klipsch Synergy B-20 and the Pioneer SP-BS22-LR have both been mentioned as being good cheap starter speakers. Any suggestions on which is best? I noticed both amazon and newegg rank them both really high.

Another possible option might be the Pioneer SP-FS52-LR.

I would like to run a tube based amp to these. Again I want something that sounds nice, I don't mind it adding some warmth to the sound. I am hoping to find something in the less expensive range, preferably sub $500. Any recommendations? Currently considering JoLida 102B Stereo Tubed Integrated Amplifier from what I read on this and other sites.

Any suggestions, comments, or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
