Hi guys,
I'm looking to buy my first HiFi system soon, and I picked the Marantz pm6005. Now I'm thinking at the speakers to pair it with.
In my head I always been convinced to get a pair of Wharfedale speakers, reading so many good reviews about the two together. I suddently got confused when I checked the entry level speakers on Richer Sounds website, with so many brands I've never heard of at very competitive prices.
The main contenders are
- Wharfedale diamond 9.1 (an oldie but a goodie I'd say, they go on eBay for £50-£80 definitely a bargain)
- Wharfedale diamond 220
- Q acoustics 2020i/3010i
I'll visit Richer Sounds to listen to the 220 and 3010 and understand how the sound compares, but in the meantime do you have any experience with these?
Also is there any other brand I should seriously consider between DALI Zensor 1, Cambridge Audio SX50?
Consider this is my first HiFi, so I'm looking for an all-round speaker. My budget is up to £150, but I'd happily save some money if I find a bargain (so I wouldn't mind picking up the 9.1 second hand if the difference with the 220 is marginal).
Hope it makes sense, thanks!
