QUOTE(pierreye @ Jun 24 2010, 08:03 PM) Diff people diff priority. My priority is to get ref level without distortion. My recommendation as below: 1. Subwoofer - Submersive if you can get Mark to quote you the shipping. I give up on the slow communication and go for eD DIY A7s-650 kit - around RM 7k (including shipping and tax). Other choice is SVS PB-13 Subwoofer (get quote from HTKaki) 2. Amp - XPA-5 around RM 4.1k. HTKaki is selling his at RM 3.2k. 3. Receiver - Onkyo TX-876. Not sure what's the price now should be around RM 4k. 4. Speaker - JTR Triple 8 (3 units) + Slanted 8 (2 units). Around RM 18k including shipping & tax. 5. Wire - Cheaper choice is to buy Belden speaker cable. You can go for 12AWG speaker wire. Length depends on your room size. IC you can go for BJC-1 from Blue Jeans Cable. If you want branded wire, you can try to bid for Zu Cables from EBay for half the price selling here. wah... i like this setup  |

Or opt for Sonus Faber Concerto Domus (2 pairs) and a SF Ctr for loudspeakers.
Then, whack a midrange avr and a power amp since SF needs power to 'sing'. Reward wld be very good.
Sub - SVS PB13-Ultra or PC13-Ultra.
oonbc, where's your location?

IMHO (and from a noob), 30k to spend on audio to be placed in the living room with no acoustic treatment (assumed) is just a waste.

Hi..
30k seems a lot when u spend it at one go.. most of will do it one step at a time.. at least tats de way for me ..
All d gear recommended is gud but I dont tink u ll be abl to gauge it thru our views.. at least for spkrs, u ll nid to try out for ur self.. I ll thrw in a few names too - dynaudio / focal[jmlab] r decent spkrs..
Avrs.. I d go for a mid rnge model [wif most/all d bells n whistles] n pair it wif a decent pwr amp..
Sub - I d get a decent local supplied model - SvS cums to mind..
D

Time for me to join in the fun....... Canton Karat Floorstand + Center + Rear, Denon 4310, Used XPA-5, SVS PB13-Ultra and Monster Cable  Think the Kaki and the Tiger will be happy with this combination... Maybe can chip in some XLO or Cardas stuff.... |
