Speakers for newbie

Hi everybody,
my 1st post but i spent lots of time reading the forums.

I've got Marantz SR6006 receiver and thinking about purchasing B&W P6 series. Ill be listening 50-70% to music and 30-40% movies.

Please let me guys know what do you think, any help greatly appreciated. Sadly my budget is only $1000

thx,
eMax

I'm not familiar with the P6, but B&W generally need lots of power. Despite the power rating on the Marantz, I don't think you can drive them to their full potential.

There are some very good full-range speakers listed on Audiogon - in your price range - that I think would make a better match.

Among a million others. How far away from the speakers will you be, and how big is the room?

ATI is very good, so is Aragon. I don't like Adcom at all, really. I'd take just about any good amp over Adcom.
