Hi,
Need some advice. I am in Mumbai and looking to set up HT system - component by component. To start with, I am looking for pair of tower / floor standing speakers and a amp/receiver. My room will be 21"X15" (Length X Width). My budget for the first leg of investment (2FS +AVR) was initially about 1 lakh and I can extend it to 1.5 or so (only if needed and have compelling value to do so).
I have auditioned Kef, Jamo, Klipsch, Polk for speakers along with combination of Marantz and Denon amps. Final shortlist as of now is Klipsch speakers RF82, follwed by Klipsch RF62. Klipsch RF82 final price is about 1L and RF62 final price is being quoted abot Rs 70K. On Amp, I am inclined with Marantz SR 6006 (about Rs 60K). Need help on following:
a. Klipsch RF62 vs RF82 argument. RF82 did sound better but is it worth spending Rs 30K extra?
b. Are prices mentioned here in correct range / ball-park. Want to make sure I get a fair deal.
c. Any thoughts on amp. Will Marantz SR6006 be an overkill if I do go down with Klipsch RF62? Any alternatives in that case?
d. Should I be auditioning something else given my budget criteria? Is there soemthing must to audition missing from my list to get a fair idea of choices and final verdict?
Thanks a ton for help and guidance.
