My wife discovered that we need an audio system because my son is playing piano for 3 years and he needs an audio system. As long as I am unemployed I cannot afford too much. So, my wife looking around came from a dealer with the clear idea that the best system is that one that she saw there: Yamaha HTR-5660 Receiver for $260 and PSB IMAGE 4T for $235.
Now, I am wondering if we can do better than this for $500. Is hard for me to believe that she went somewhere and at the first sight she came with the best system for $500.
The system it will be used for (in this order): 1. audio for TV 2. Radio listening (rock, classical, jazz) 3. DVD movies 4. auditioning DVD-audio, CDs and mp3s 5. keyboard for my son (classical piano)
So, I want to show her that an integrated amplifier and some bookshelf speakers can do better than a receiver and towers for $500.
We already have a DVD player Toshiba SD-4900 that we intend to use for playing DVD-audio, CDs and mp3s.
We live in an apartement in a building so the power is not the top priority for us. Rather quality at low and very low levels.
