Just a general suggestion regarding your decision to go with monitors--I would strongly consider floor standers. You will still need a base for the monitors and there are plenty of floorstanders that will give you far better sound (especially for the dynamics of movies) and take up the same footprint on your floor. If you're really starved for space/cash and can't get a subwoofer then I think the monitors would be an even bigger mistake. I'll leave it to others for specific suggestions.
Amp/Speaker selection help.
I'm looking for a nice setup to be used along with my rear projection television. I will be using it for movies mostly and some 2 channel audio. I'd like to use monitor speakers because of space constraints. My price range for speakers and amp is between $2,500 and $3,000.
The part that really confuses me is the amplifier. Which way should I go for 2 channel theater and some 2 channel audio? Would I want tubes, SS, or a hybrid?
The dimensions of the room are 17' X 10'.
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
