Hello everyone,
I am a beginner audiophile and I have been listening to music using Sennheiser hd560 headphones with ifi hip dac. Now I am looking to buy my first budget 2-channel hifi system.
I will be streaming music from online sources like amazon music and Spotify. I would also connect the system to TV to improve its sound. I do not plan to use any vinyl or cd sources at the moment. Music type will be mostly old songs, instrumental, Western orchestra, and sometimes English rock music.
I have been going through lot of reviews and have put together a shortlist for integrated amplifier+bookshelf system based on online reviews and recommendations from 1-2 dealers. I am hoping that members here would be able to guide me in fixing the configuration
For amplifier with online streaming, I am considering the following options:
a) Marantz NR1200 stereo receiver
b) Marantz PM6007 + a budget streamer like WiiM mini or something else
c) Marantz PM7000N
For bookshelf speakers, I am considering Elac b5.2 or b6.2
Which of the above integrated amplifier options should I choose? Or some other amplifier option would be better?
For speakers should I go with Elac bookshelf speakers or some other option?
Thank you for your input
