Hello everyone,
I would like to ask you for your opinion (or maybe some advice) on my situation...
- I'm moving into a new apartment in a few weeks and I want to build some kind of home-cinema/sound system for my living room + kitchen (size of this room is 26 square meters and roughly 67 cubic meters or 2400 cubic feet).
- My budget is about 5000 euros for speakers and maybe later 1000 for some rear speakers. But I don't want to spend all this money if it is not needed of course (5000 is equivalent to several monthly wages in my country)... if I can purchase something very good (or comparable to that 5k speakers) for less, it's better.
- I don't consider myself as an audiophile, but I like to buy things which will last a long time and as I understand this whole audio-thing, speakers can last very long time. Therefore I want something good, which can last even if I move into some bigger apartment/house later (I don't want to throw-away thousands of euros, because reselling of something like this is VERY hard in my country).
- I want this sound system to be 50% for movies and and 50% for background listening (while doing something else - e.g. reading).
- I don't want to annoy neighbors so it will not be possible to play them very loud... but as I understand it, good speakers sound better than cheap ones even if they don't play that loud, don't they? Or there is not much difference if they are not loud?
For now I'm thinking about Triton Ones or Triton Twos, but I have to go to audition them to another country (no distributor here)... I have quite a dilemma, because I don't want to spend extra money if it's not needed for my usage, but I really want something which will last many years (maybe some top-end sound-bar is enough? or some other speaker system?)... What do you think?
Thank you in advance for any response.
