Hi,
I've had a look at some of the recommendations in the thread about budget speakers, but am looking for a more complete answer to my questions on which speakers and indeed which amp to get to match them. My budget is around

Hi
I think most dealers try to sale more expensive components vs solving basic problems like room acoustic.
i know a body that he spend over 200,000$ for system and if you see his room you think the man is so crazy because his room is under standard for listenning.
after 6 month he say to his dealer that sound is not very good and dealer tell him you should change your speaker cable and i give you a 8000$ cable for solving problem
he buy it and see sound was better but never undrestand basic problem will effect on his brain in long term.

Hey

For a time now i've been considering buying a new stereo set. Coming from a headset hooked up on a laptop i know what a change it will be -- or maybe i don't.

Before i take this step though i will have to do some jobs and save some money. This will at least take like a half year. I will have about 1500$ available to spoil myself to hell.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a warm sounding, but cool running amp for under $2K. I currently have a Krell KST-100 that is heating up the house (I'm not kidding. We live in South Florida and this amp sounds great, but could double as a space heater!) and we are downsizing to a smaller home. The rest of the system is a Music Reference RM5, Proac SuperTowers, CAL Tercet, and a Well Tempered Record Player.
Also am considering downsizing the speakers to Proac Tablette Reference 8 Sigs. Any thoughts?
Looking for warm and listenable over cool and analytical.
