BOOKSHELF SPEAKERS

What bookshelfs give more bang for the buck for someone like me who is not an audiophile. I like music at the current time(Cool Jazz, Classical)and will be using the speakers in a small living/dining room (that's why no HT at the present time.) The speakers will be powered by a Marantz SR8000(105WPC.) Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

What is you budget ? and that is alot of receiver for a small 2 channel system. Some of my favorites are B&W Nautilus 805 about $1800/pair, B&W CDM1 about $900/pair Monitor Audio Silver 4i about $800/pair or the monitor baby system all 5 speakers and a sub for about $1200. Speaking of subs depending on the type of classical you like you will need at least a 10" w/150w but you will have to pick out your speakers first so that you can match the sub to them. Anyway hope this helps a little.

Not knowing your budget but by judging your receiver it would open up very nicely with the B&W dm602 which you can retire to the rear of your room when you upgrade to HT. Yhey are the large model of their lineup in the 600 series and they retail for about 600-650. good luck!
