Living audio set-up

Hi,first off I would recommend an all in one solution with built in DAC & Headphone INSTEAD of seperate power amp/pre amp.
 Hegel,SimAudio or Quad Vena2 would be at the top of my list..
 As for speakers you need a general idea what type of tone you want.I value an organic tone with ZERO tendency towards brightness..I do NOT like ANYTHING with metal drivers & prefer Silk dome tweeters & natural(Dali,Sonus Faber) or polymer(Harbeth,Dynaudio) materials..
 Don't spend crazy on cables,look at gently used cables,you'll get more for your $ often getting up to 50% off retail value..
 READ READ READ,learn about the different types of tone reproduced by different components..Good luck!

I have heard the Hegel 590 driving Harbeth M40.2 speakers & the sound was pretty amazing but then together they retail for about $25,000.00..All my research says Hegel is a top choice with well rounded sound not favoring any particular sound trait..The 190 is a little pricey unless you find gently used so maybe look a little farther down the line like the new H120 or H95,you save some $ that can go for better speakers & do not lose anything but a small amount of power you probably don't need...
 As for speakers how big is your listening room?How far away from back & side walls can speakers be placed?Is the room hard sounding(lots of glass,hardwood floors etc.)over damped(heavy drapes,big soft furniture,thick carpet) or a balanced combination?What kinds of music do you listen to & about how loud?

Pretty good size room & hard.IMO a good floorstanding 3 way is the way to go here + they would be a bit more efficient,making better use of power.In your room I would absolutely not get anything that has a tendency to be brighter sounding like Triangle or pretty much anything with all metal drivers..Even something like Dynaudio might tend towards brightness in your room..
 My $ would probably go for something from Sonus Faber or in your room the Wharfedale Linton & the Harbeth Compact 7ES-3/ XD might be good options...

^^^ IMO they might come off as a bit bass shy,smallish cabinet & drivers..I heard the Lumina V recently driven by a Creek EVO50 & I have to say they have the wonderful,rich yet detailed sound SF has always had a reputation for...

Small will work if you compact your listening area,ie:set up system on the short wall & sit a little closer.I would also at least throw a rug down & curtains over the closest windows..

I read somewhere the owner/designer/builder of Harbeth LOVES Hegel & uses them exclusively to demo his speakers..I would imagine the combination would be highly musical,tonally colorful & easily enjoyable..Don't forget decent stands & give everything you get time to break in,usually a good 50 hours gets you close,most gear showing minimal changes out to 500 hours..JMOYMMV,best of luck & don't forget an update when you have it all sorted out..
