I'd go with Verity Fidelio's or Merlin VMS-SE w/BAMs and the Audio Research VT100 and LS8 preamp- that should bring it in within price range. Cables are going to bbe extremely important, too. I like MIT's, but my expereince is limited. Jim
Advise Needed for Speakers and Amplifier
I have $8,000 to 10,000 budgeted for speakers and an integrated amplifier (to keep cost low). The equipment selected will be used with a BAT VK-D5 CD Player. I have listened to the Jeff Rowland Integrated amp and the ProAc 2.5 speaker. This combination is very good except the base seems limited. Another speaker is the Dynaudio Contour 3.0 (sounds very good) with either the Krell KAV-500i Remote Control Integrated Amplifier or the new The Mark Levinson No383 Integrated amplifier due out sometime in November. Comments and suggestions are requested. Thanks
