I know there has been quite a lot written about these pairings, but anyway. These are the generaly favourable amps/speakers for which I can get a deal within my budget around here - AJ19/Nait 5i/Brio R and LS50/685 S2, and I'm not quite sure what to choose.
For starters, a perfect listening experience for me is focused listening with Sgt. Peppers, Depeche Mode's Violator and My Bloody Valentine's Loveless (fan of the music) for example and Eagles or Phill Collins (fan of production). So more or less organic with electronic elements, FLAC from a Mac or vinyl.
Which combination do you think I would enjoy most? Everything written about the LS50 seems to represent what I would want from a speaker. But would you think that I would find (coming from Dali Concepts and a Yamaha RN500, which I liked for the budget) the 685 more entertaining than the LS50? Is there a big compromise in informativeness?
I'm even less sure about the amps and count on anyone's help to shed some light on my choice. Any better alternatives in this price bracket?
Thank you for your input! Much appreciated.
