Entry level floorstanders and basic amp

griffdaddy

Hi guys,

Looking to put together a (very) entry level system for a mate with a couple of floorstanders and a basic amp to begin. I'm thinking about the tibo edge that are on special at the moment and one of the basic Pioneer or Denon amps. Looking to keep it under 200 sterling. Any thing you can recommend?

Thanks a lot,

Griff

Griff,

thanks for the opportunity to quote - here are a few options:

Option 1.
Cambridge Audio AM1 Amp £79.95: http://www.richersounds.com/product/amplifiers-receivers/cambridge-audio/topaz-am1/camb-topaz-am1-blk
Tibo Edge 200 Floorstander speakers £69.95: http://www.richersounds.com/product/floorstanders/tibo/edge-200/tibo-edge-200
Total : £139.95

Option 2.

Cambridge Audio AM5 ( much better amp - sounds great!) £119.95: http://www.richersounds.com/product/amplifiers-receivers/cambridge-audio/topaz-am5/camb-topaz-am5-blk
Tibo Edge 200 £69.95
Total: £174.95

Option 3:
Cambridge Audio AM5 Amp £119.95
Monitor Audio BX1 Black £199: http://www.richersounds.com/product/standmount-speakers/monitor-audio/bronze-bx1/moni-audio-bx1-blk
Total: £219.95

I know that the 3rd option doesn't have the Tibo floorstanders, but the BX1 will sound W A Y W A Y better than the Tibo and I also know that it busts the budget slightly, but it would really be worth it for the sake of £20 - and it will be the best sounding and the best value amp speaker combo around £200 by a country mile!

Thanks again and keep us posted,

ATVB,

Hi John,

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. Do you have an entry level AV receiver instead of the amp?

Thanks,

Griff

Hi Griff,

Thanks for getting back to us.

The best amp we'd have in that price range would be the Yamaha RXV 375:

It would run nicely with all the speaker suggestions John have given.
