Morning all I'm in the market for a set of speakers & integrated amp with around £1K at my disposal. I have a fairly standard listening room, with the usual soft(ish) furnishings (carpets etc) & am able to site the proposed speakers away from any walls. Listening path to the said speakers is uncluttered. Musically, i mostly listen to Soul/R & Blues music, so i am looking for a combination which will enable me to enjoy the output Sound wise, i do not like the warmer presentation - or any of the terms 'wooly, warm, safe etc' - I do prefer the more cleaner presentation, without crossing over into the fatiguing area. Ideally i would like both units to have good engineering/design principals & do not mind dipping into the 2nd-hand market. Any recommendations for partnerships that i should investigate. Best wishes
