You know what ,I just did a project for a dear friend ,who didn't want to cross the wife....For loudspeakers,there is only one choice:PSB.Really if you actually listened to one you would understand Why JA recommend the Alpha B1,and that's the speaker we ended up with.[220.00 new]
Next the amp,we ended up with a demo set of Exposure 2010,and it drove the speaker beutifully[500.00]
for cdp,he use his philips dvd player ,because nothing that cost less than 500.00 show any clear benefits.
The PCs are all stock cables,and we managed to bet some deals on Audioquest sp cables and Monster IC[200.00]
Total cost:920.00
The system was really superb .the star of the system?PSB Alpha B1 hands down!!!!
Hope that helps.
