Hello,

Kinda new at this so I could really use some advice. I have a pretty big L shaped living room with kitchen included and I was considering a two speakers setup. The big side of the L is about 30 sqm and the speakers will be placed close to the smaller inside wall.

Looking at reviews and what a pretty good local shop has on stock, these would be some options:

KEF Q550 (625 Euro)
Monitor Audio Bronze 6 (540E)
Q Acoustics 3050i (415E)

They also have a pretty good deal for a NAD C 338 (310E), keeping in mind I want wireless streaming. Another option would be Yamaha R-N602 but its way more expensive at 480E and not sure if the difference is worth it.

How does the above sound?. Don't really looking for a perfect setup keeping in mind I can't change the room much, but I want to make sure I'd get at least a decent sound quality and keep the cost around 1000E. Also, the listening volume would be not be too high since it's a flat, but the isolation is pretty good between me and the neighbours so won't be very low either.

As an option, I could buy some wireless active speakers for the master bedroom (18 sqm, but has a big floor to ceiling wardrobe of about 5-6 sqm). Would KEF LSX do the trick for the room? Or maybe KEF LS50 combined with the above NAD? (for the bedroom wife insists there should be bookshelf speakers only).

I will audition all of the above tomorrow but I have a hunch the store has a way better room for this.

Any opinions or advices greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
