But how will the speakers work without an amp? Sorry, still beginner here.

My understanding of Hifi is that CD Player is transport to Amp which powers the speaker and woofer to the Speaker and woofer itself.

Well if I were you, I will do proper study first and then ask some relevant questions. What u have provided 'all types of songs' will be too general. I would recommend you to buy used unit, and u can visit hifi4sale blog.

Im getting a new sony bravia 46" X series... But now wondering what hifi system to match with it..

I see Sony have lots of Hifi theater system.. but not sure how each of them performs...

I prefer Sleek design. of course with good sounds. 1 thing i like to point out is my mum loves karaoke.. I notice that nowadays surround theather system cant support or not as good as for Karaoke.. any suggestion?

Seriously, if you are getting such a premium lcd tv, go for separate HT system (not HTiB). Karaoke system starts from RM1K+ to few K. IMHO, BMB is overrated. Try to allocate RM6-7K for the bgt entry setup. If you can afford more, then it would be better.

No, I meant HT system. The important thing in Karaoke system is the mixer with those keys to adjust. RM1K+ would suffice.

I've got one of those mixers. A Sony one. But its not being used. Would anyone know how much it could fetch? Anyone interested? I'll probably take a pic and post it up for sale one day soon.

Halo sifu here i am looking for a low end stero amp for my mordaunt-short carnival 2.
Now i am wondering to go Denon PMA-700AE or Rotel RA-04.
My budget is about rm1k, some audio shop boss had recommend me for Denon but i draw back cause some bad feed back from some online review.
i am a female vocal lover and some jpop which a sweet vocal clear sound is needed.
Any recommendation which should i go for or any other good amp?

If you like vocal with sweet and warm sound, you want to try tubes. Tubes give you the air of the female vocalist. Put in those old school Mullard tubes or the Amperex Holland bugle boy and let her sings.

Tubes have warmth, thats a known fact, but each brand or batch of tube have its own unique presentation and tonality. Even then a given tube will not meet expectation or perform differently as it depends on the rest of the combination of amplification tubes. Most if not all tube gear owner will mix and match various compatible tubes to achieve best sonic presentation. Its not always the case of old school or NOS tubes that'll guarantee the best sonic quality. I myself use a combination current production tubes from JJ Electronic (which some I think are excellent), and a pair of "little known and currently sold for very cheap" RCA microphone preamp tubes which have lowest microphonics and noise floor.

Hi Sifus,

I just bought an used tube pre amp , namely Antique Sound Labs to partner with my SS dual mono power amp. I love the warm tube sound.

However, I find this tube amp ( about 10 years old ) is giving loud hum sound. On top of that, after 3 hours of testing, it started to produce some electricity current noise ( woo sound ) through speakers.

Since this is the first time I am using tube amp, I wonder it is a norm for tube amps. No problems with my other SS amps I am having.

I am using 2 12au 7 (EH ) new and 1 12ax 7 tube ( 66% ) used Sovtek tube.

Any comments from any sifus are much appreciated.
