hi all, im new to the speaker world, so im looking for suggestions. ive long delayed getting a pair of speakers just because of lack of good acoustic space, however, im moving into a new house that has a fantastic hardwood floored rectangular living room, 18' x 12'. I need suggestions on a decent amp to build and a pair of speakers to pair with them. i think at this point im inclined towards buying two tower speakers of some sort, im looking to spend around 1000 for a used pair (or less). most tower speakers have woofers right, so would i need to buy a sub in addition, or do alot of people use towers without a sub with ample results? in terms of a good amp circuit to build, im not too picky on what, i just need a good power amp that will be able to power whatever speakers you guys suggest. i dont have a pre-amp, so something that can act as a pre-amp and can be wired with a potentiometer would be idea.
ballpark, im looking to spend about 500-1000 on the speakers, 400-500 on the amplifier, and maybe a sub if you guys think id need one as well. please shoot me any suggestions at all, as i said im new to the speaker world so im a bit clueless in this realm! im not looking for a ton of bass out of these speakers, moreso something quality sounding that can fill up that acoustic space - although some thump would definitely be nice, as i do listen to some bass heavier music once and a while!
