You're in the UK (
£1000 ) ? If you are , you must have some good audio dealers near enough to visit. The kind where you can sit down and listen in hopefully an uncluttered fashion, not some room just full of equipment. An audiophile is an enthusiast like in any hobby. It's the path down a road to hopefully get you where you want to be in the hobby of reproducing music in your home. And starting with a quality audio dealer or two or three if possible where you can listen to several systems , setups in a no rush way and staff that really enjoy what they do and maybe explain why they like the equipment that they sell. Simply accumulating a bunch of disparate opinions on the web will just confuse you more. Go listen; if you like what you hear, don't be afraid to say "I like that".
Very new to high end audio - Recomendations
Hello, as the title says etc etc.
a few years member of headfi and enjoy my personal mobile setup, but looking into something for the home. This site was suggested as a nice place to look around in.
Knowledge is almost zilch when it comes to speakers/amps etc.
I'm thinking maybe active speakers and I can line out from my DAP, will that work? How do active speakers perform best? what would work out better if matching prices in active speakers or passive with an amp?
Budget is fairly low, max £1000. Something to introduce me into the scenery. Something nice secondhand (preloved) or if a nifty setup can be bought new at a budget along those lines. Thanks in advance for any suggestions :)
