Hi Ben- the NAD is a good unit. I have heard the Acoustic Energy Aegis One and it is a good speaker with a surprising amount of bass. Have not heard the Evo 1. Would suggest that at this stage, you consider leaving a sub out, and putting the $ into a better source (CDP).
Newbie requiring first system advice...
Hi all.
I'm a "newbie" who is in dire need of some advice.
I'm looking to build a hifi system on a very strict budget.
This would be for a bedroom system, replacing a 10 year old Aiwa mini system, so hey, anything will be an improvement.
My main source would be my PC, playing AAC and MP3 files [not the best source I know, CD player to come later].
Ideally, what I'm looking for is the best sound I can get on at a very limited budget.
NZD $2000. or USD $1,391.71
My music taste is far ranging from rock to very ambient work.
This is what I've come up with so far:
Nad C320BEEE
Acoustic Energy Evo One
Deftech Sub 80.
I would appreciate any advice on this setup, and be interested to hear from anyone running a system in a similar budget that could offer alternatives.
Thanks in advance,
Ben,
