Recommendations to a small room setup

Hello everyone,

Im setting up a system in my apartment this coming fall and just wanted some extra input from those much more knowledgable in this field than I am.

My living room is fairly small (~200sqft) so I am looking for speakers for this size.

I have looked at Dynaudio Excite X12s, Magnepan MMGs, Dali Zensor 3s, etc. But honestly, they all seem pretty good to me.

I was suggested against the NAD C165BEE and NAD C275BEE setup for any small speaker setup (maybe except for the MMGs), so I would love some input on electronics setup as well. What do you guys think about the Marantz SR7009??

Finally, I will be mainly listening to alot of pop, indie, ballad, jazz, blues, acoustics, and EDM. Also, I hope to have the speakers and electronics I purchase to be pretty decent when watching movies/TV shows.

Thank you!

Your taste for EDM might limit your choices, if it's really a significant part of your musical diet. The MMGs are an excellent speaker for that space, but probably less than optimal for music that relies upon bass impact in the sub 60 hz region. Bass heavy music in a smallish space is always a challenge, IME, and you might think about a small sub with Audyssey (or similar) EQ capabilities to fill out the rest of your system choices.

Just MHO.
