Hello guys! My first contact with a stereo setup was at my brother house with a Marantz amp and B&W 600s bookshelf and for me that was a game changer. Now i'm buying my fist system. I upload my room scheme with all measures in millimetres. The use of the system is to listen music 80% and not only in the couch but i want a spread sound on all room. I liked the new CA Evo amplifier. Initially, i choose the KEF R7s, but after reading more, I saw some reviews preferring the LS50Meta. Another Speaker that I liked was the Focal 826. I have some doubts about the best speaker to choose, position of them, if they combine with a Cambridge audio Evo, necessity of a central or subs... I'm fully open for tips, suggestions, critics and for changes on the set up.
The Measures:
- TV to Couch --> 4,085 meters
- Room --> 5,217 x 4,530 meters / 23m2 (247,57 ft/sq)

Possible setup:
- Speakers: KEF R7 / LS50 Meta / Focal 826 (?)
- Amp: CA Evo
- Turntable: Pro-ject Debut Carbon Evo

You can help people helping you by providing some more info:

- What's your total budget?
- Are you considering a multichannel setup (you say stereo but if you add a center you can as well add surrounds and atmos)?
- Do you own any audio gear that you can keep using?
- Do you already have a vinyl collection? If not, it may not be worth it (aka too expensive) to start now.
- Are you using some streaming platform, where is your music located?
- Will you consider active speakers?

PS: It's best to not create multiple threads because it complicate things.
