hello all,
im looking for speakers.
currently my budget is like $600 - $700 and Im getting a 6.1 receiver. I will mostly listen to music and Im really wanting to get into multichannel music. BUT I dont want to buy, then upgrade later and then once again. Id rather buy something Ill want for a long time. so Ive decided to look at replacing my only 2 speakers with the best I can get, then fill in the gaps when I can afford them. Currently I have 2 speakers, no name, paper coned 8" woofer, paper coned 2" tweeter. they sound fine at 2 am, but at 2 pm when I want to crank the music, they just dont do it.
Sooooo, Im wanting to know what is better/best and whatnot. I remember the big kevlar fad a few years ago, are there better materials out there? could I get floorstanders for my budget? would those be better than good bookshelves for the same price?
so I guess Im either looking for suggestions on two (2) great speakers at $600 - $800. Please, if you suggest something, let me know what you like about the speaker. If you are describing sound, give an example. I dont understand comments like 'warm' or 'bright. my friends dad has b&w's all around and I thought I was in heaven. Dont know the model though but ill try to use that as a reference opoint.
thanks in advance ;0
