Hey guys,
Thought I would start this thread as a platform for discussion and at the same help seek some answers for myself and other like me.
I am completely new to the world of Hi-fi and realized there is a lot that goes in buying the right system for oneself. My usage would be 80% music (English music - like of Bryan Adams, Gypsy Kings, Eagles etc; Hindi Music new and old; and downloaded MP3s from net not of high quality) and 20% movies.
I plan to set up my system (either 2.0 or 2.1) using a source, integrated amp, and BS speakers for total budget of around 50k (please feel free to advise if I got my setup wrong). With the technology changing so fast, I want to have the option of using both PC and Player as a source.
So the question now arises - (i) whether the choice of Amp and Speakers (BS) changes if my source changes or it doesnt really matter which source I use (PC or Player),
(ii) Is it practical/logical to have option of using both PC and Player as source.
Let me know what you guys think. Please do keep in mind that this setup is for a novice and the usage type.
P.S. Someone had suggested to me the CA DVD99 with a USB port, SACD, DVD-A capability would be good option for multiple usage.
