Hi all,

I'm 26 and I'm looking to get into hifi audio.  I'm not new to audio as I have built my own ICE system and own high end headphones.  I'm making the move to home audio.  Currently, I do not own anything expect a HTIB and will start from the ground up.  I'm not sure if I want a 2.1 or 5.1 system.  I'm going to use this setup for audio, tv, xbox one, and HT.  



Possible Speakers: Below $2,000

  • B&W 683
  • Paradigm Monitor series
  • Monitor audio RX6, RX8
  • Klipsch RF-82 ii

As for the speakers my brother owns the RF and the cousin owns the B&W.  I'm not sure if I want to own the same pair as them... 

Amp:  Not sure which to get.  I want to get the most out of the speakers and I don't want hard to drive speakers.



AVR: Since I am doing audio and video which receiver should I look at?  When I listen to music I only want the L adn R to be working with the sub.  And when I watch a movie I want all 5 channels working.

I'm going to start off with a 2.1 system and expand from there.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks
