Well here goes, my first dip into the sea of forums.
I have recently purchased a G10 Panasonic TV and blu ray player.
I want to get an AV receiver and discreet set of speakers that will allow me to listen to music via an ipod or CD. I want to get rid of my old technics system and whilst I don't have a huge budget left [£600-ish] I want to get something that will deal with both the TV and music sides of things.
Having taken a trip into Comet the salesman suggested the Pioneer VSX 919. I am told it uses the digital info in the ipod rather than the analogue output from a headphone jack. I was very impressed especially when compared with the onkyo 607 [?] which sounded flat.
The speakers I heard it with was a set of jamo S606 but these were huge & over budget. I see the A102 are well reviewed but are they good enough to play my music?
I would appreciate any advice you can give please, but hurry - i need to buy and get the speaker cables installed before the carpet goes down next week!
