Hi guys,
I've got an old pair of Eltax symphony 6 and one of the mid/bass drivers has packed in. My amp is a Cambridge Audio A500 (60w) - from Richer Sounds a few years ago now. I mainly play 320kbps MP3's and will be running movies/games/tv/music through it (They're beside 42" TV).
I need replacement pair and I'm torn between the following:
Wharfdale 10.1
Monitor Audio BX2 (top of my price range)
EBAY BARGIN SUCH AS:
B&W 602 S3
B&W - anything for around 200/250
Bose Acoustimass (I know, but they look cool and save space)
I'm in an apartment with small-mid sized living space - floor standers not necessary I don't think. Although I don't want to skimp on the bass.
I'm really stuggling on what to go for - some stuff on eBay is so tempting (I love B&W gear), but will the speakers degrade with age?? And will the amp be up to scratch?!
Opinions thanks !!
