Brought a Denon AVR 1612. Now what Speakers?

[Stevie]

At the experts, A week back brought a Denon AVR 1612 after a lot of reading in the forums & Seriously need to thank all the experts who educated me about the differences in the Denon models. Now coming to the speakers, I Auditioned TSI 200 from Polk along with TSI 100's and found to be a pretty decent ones for the price that I'm getting it for. I mean, the Polk that i auditioned was connected to a Integrated Amp Denon PMA-710AE and the sound stage that i got from the speakers were amazing & i was sold to it. Now the real question is will the AVR 1612 drive about two of the TSI 200's in the front & two TSI 100's in the rear. The Showroom guy told that the quality & sound stage will be ths same as the Integrated Amp from the AVR but i doubt it. My Centre channel speaker & the Sub will be added later on after i get some Vitamin-M. Experts shed some light pls. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Thanks,
Stev

If you are looking for stageringly good but inexpense speakers pls try for the Pioneer SP-BS41-LR speakers. These run about $150 usa for a pair and are being noted within the high-end community for exceptionally good entry level high-end sound at this price point.

I purchased a pair, just for fun, and am amazed at how good they sound (and I am a analogue devotee high-ender). They will easily compete with entry level high-end speaker such as the wharfdale 10.1 and psb alpha b1.

As I usually pooh-pooh mid-fi equipment, I have been reluctant to put them out for folks to see. hyeah:

But have been pointing folks to them who are looking for low cost good sounding systems. Coupled with a Cambridge Audio entry level integrated amp and DAC the overall sound is really good (one of my non-audiophile friends recently acquired system)

You can find reviews of the speaker on the internet. Here's review from a well respected high-end mag. After reading this I had to try a pair.
