What HiFi list two dealers (in Mersyside) that carry both lines you’re interested in, one is in Southport. Is Southport too far to travel?

I guess it’s all relative, but I don’t see how spending £400 on speakers isn’t obscene, yet £250 on an amp is? To be honest, I think I’d spread my budget more evenly. If you buy revealing speakers but (relative to the speakers) buy poor source/amp, all your speakers will reveal is how poor your other components are.
