I am on the look out for a home audio setup, I currently use the tv speakers which are shocking to say the least.
Budget wise I am thinking around £4-500 for the receiver and the speakers.
From a little read about AV Receivers, I have decided on something like the Yamaha RX-V377 or the 477. Good choice?
I am struggling however to choose some speakers, I do not really want the hassle of a 5.1 surround just yet, mainly because I live in a rented apartment and don't want to rip up the carpets to hide cables etc, so ideally I would like a decent 2.0 or 2.1 setup to start with.
I have been looking on Richersounds, it would appear some good budget speakers are the Wharfdale Diamond 220's? Any suggestions? Anything on the second hand market to look out for?
I am not against some floor standers, but I'm not sure my budget will cover anything worthwhile?
