I Am At Your Mercy

Hi, my name is Eric Baer and I need your help. I am bulding a system for my room in Memphis TN. I will tell you two things about memphis: The music is dead. It has come and gone and there is little left but tours of the old sun studios. Seccond, there are very few audio dealers in memphis carying mostly Denon and Bose gear. With that being said I am putting myself at your Mercy. Because I am relying totally on what I read I will end up buying what is suggested. I alredy have a source but apart from that we are doing a ground up system. the Source is a Njoe Tjoeb 4000 tube output CDP. I am in a approxamatly 25x14 foot foom with eight foot cealings. My budget is rather low but i have no problems with used stuff. Here were some things i came up with.

Speakers
Triangle Titus
Alon Lil' Rascal
Green Mountain Audio Europa
Maggnepan MMG
Vandersteen 1c
Epos Maybe?

Amps
Redone Dynaco st-70
Antique Sound Labs Wave 25 mono's
McCormack .5, 1, or 125
Unison Unico
Blue Circle

Pre-Amp (My source has a variable output so it is not nessisary yet)
Bottlehead foreplay with mods.

If you have any ideas or combinations or comments please let me know. I would be very very appreciative.

Thanks Eric Baer

You have a fairly large room. Depending on your taste for bass, you may need to think larger when it comes to speakers. Try a pair of Snell D's. You can find them for 600-700, a ridiculous value. The McCormack amps would be a nice choice.
If you're not a bass nut, the Maggies or the GMAs are very nice. But they won't energize your room at high levels.
