Hello, all. I realize there are probably millions of like threads asking for system recommendations...please bear with me.
I'm preparing to build a system for my New York studio, which is quite petite. I have about a thousand dollars to blow...I could probably spend as much as $1200 if so persuaded. With that money I hope to get a set of loudspeakers, an amp and a subwoofer.
They key here is SIZE. I want to make the smallest system possible. It is particularly important that the amp and subwoofer be compact...ideally the speakers would be quite small as well, but I'm willing to get slightly bigger with those.
After browsing the forum a bit and reading through a few 6moons reviews I'm considering the Glow, Qinpu or Nuforce systems. I'd be happy to swap things out rather than going with a single system...I've selected these only after a small amount of research. I've also read good things about Dayens Ampino amplifier.
At any rate, what sort of small/compact system might you guys want within this price range? Keep in mind I've never had a very good speaker system...which means I probably still have virgin ears by audiophile standards. Whatever I end up throwing together, it's likely to sound much better than my current mass-produced consumer-ware.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Great forum you guys have got.
P.S. It seems like some of these smaller manufacturers have really lousy distribution...ideally I'd like to avoid a hassle and a long waiting period.
