I want to buy a powerful stereo amp with matching speakers for playing hard n soft rock. I want my deal to be simple i.e. from authorized dealers with warranty and customer support. Not many are selling stereo amps in the market as the demand is mostly for HT systems.
Even though there is sea of info here, which is an education and sometimes overhelming, fortunately things are much simpler when it comes to implementation as most of the stuff discussed here is not readily available in the market i.e. in Hyderabad. So I thought I will come other way round. Find out whats available n c whether it suits my requirement. Even though Marantz is my personal favorite as of now I could find only the following HK stuff.
1. Harman Kardon Amp 3390/3490 M for 26/30 K + 12.5% tax.
2. Cambridge Audio: (Looking for CA A 540 AMP with MS Avanti 906i speaker combination as somebody suggested here). Just spoke on phone with the rep at soundroom. He doesnt have any stock right now and asked me to mail my requirements which I just did.
So friends I want to know whether I can pick up above HK 3390/3490 AMP at that price. How good are HK AMPs. which one should I pick up. BTW my room size is 17 X 14 ft.
Matching speakers: Which speakers will match with above amp. I was suggested JBL speakers for 45K which is beyond my budget. I want a reasonably good quality floor standing/Bookshelf speakers for around 20K to match with HK amp. May be later I can add a sub woofer. i am looking at Jamo/Wharfedale/Mordaunt short speakers ie in that quality and price range
Let me clarify, my practical knowledge in this field is limited and I have come to some conclusion reading the posts here, for which I am grateful.
i have a offer of Onkyo 505 AVR + Elac 50 series 5.1 at 70K. Can i consider that, its xceeding my budget . if its really a great deal i may stretch my self that farther, will there any scope for bargaining in such combo offers.
Pl suggest me whether any better stuff is available in Hyderabad in my budget.
