3M_Audio 2,548 Posted October 2 Posted October 2 Welcome! Regarding speakers, the possibilities are pretty much unlimited except by your budget and space. Try a couple of searches here and you should get some nice ideas. To give you my $.02 for bookshelf speakers, I'm very much enjoying some KEF iQ10 speakers that I have at my bench. You'll sometimes see these pop up on eBay for around $200 pair which I think is a steal. The imaging is terrific and the output is buttery smooth. Available in both black and a nice wood finish. 4
Brian K. Totten 525 Posted October 2 Posted October 2 Welcome! If you are handny and so inclined to build kit-form speakers, check out CSS Audio's 1TD-X series of bookies! 1
MattB 358 Posted October 2 Posted October 2 I've heard good things about the CSS kits. I built a set of bookshelves with some HiVi Research / Swans woofers and some JM Lab tweeters. I've been very happy with them for ~20yrs and they make up my office/ PC setup and get used several hours a day when I'm at home. HiVi sells a 3-way flat-pack kit that is very well reviewed and there are a number of crossover mods that improve it even more. They're sold in various places including Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09XGYJFRQ/ current price is $365, but I've seen it go on sale as low as $329 if you watch. (There's a open box / returned one for $311 right now too) I wanted to build a set for the kid's room, but was gifted a set of Triangle floorstanders from a neighbor so I didn't bother spending more money. 2

Been wanting to try Kef speakers for awhile now. I will definitely be looking into these. Thank you
