Hi all!
First post here!
I'm thinking of getting a Yamaha A-S500 amp and I'm looking for a pair of speakers to go with them for €300. The room is around 22sqm.
I can get the Warfedales 9.1 and the sub or the KEF iQ10 for around €250. What would you recommend or which should be better? The iQ30's are a bit more expensive, for around €360. Also the Quad 11L2 for €350 seem an interesting choice for now, but getting over budget.
I am aware the wharfedale 10.1 are better but their looks are just awefull! All that blink turns me down, and I'm not so fond of the Q100 either, and they're much more expensive. The Monitor Audio also look a bit plasticky for me, so I was just running down on those two.
I know I'm basing my choices a bit too much on the look but I haven't had the chance yet to listen to them yet, I'm just looking around first.
What are your opinions on this?
I listen mainly to Prog-Rock and Classical.
Thank you all!
EDIT: The room is around 18sqm, not 22 as mentioned.
