Start with speakers and work back. For new it is hard to beat NHT S-00 and M-00 new for around $750. If your friend has a wireless PC for a source then you may need only an Apple Express or a USB DAC and you are done. Anyone starting out today and on a budget should seriously consider going straight to their PC or Mac as a source.
need help -- budget system for a friend....
Your mission:
Recommend bookshelf speakers, integrated, and cd player that can be procured for $1000 total.
My buddy has diverse tastes -- lots of soul, blues, african music -- all acoustic.
New is preferable, but used would be fine if they were easily available pieces.
Thanks!
