Hi Everyone,
I do not see a lot of recommendation threads on here. If this is frowned upon for some reason, feel free to ignore or delete.
Anyway, I am considering adding a new system, starting from scratch.
I currently only own DIY speakers, but I'm interested in commercial parts as a reference point.
Budget is $2000. Speakers need to be bookshelves (not taller than 16" or deeper than 12"), and they will be placed close to the wall behind them, unfortunately. Also, appearance matters.
My thoughts are:
Rythmik L12 sub ($560)
Focal 906 speakers ($1000 for a pair)
Elac EA101 integrated amp ($450)
Feedback and alternatives appreciated.
The amp seems like maybe the most questionable component, but there is at least 1 review online which suggests that the subwoofer integration and room calibration for <200Hz work well, which seem like significant selling points.
