This post is long as I’m new to this hobby so kindly bear with me:
Looking for advice on HT gear as I’m looking to get a Rotel amplifier and HT speakers, I’m listing my questions below and would appreciate direction/advice:
* Which Speakers
I certainly want to get Floor Standing speakers for Front L + R, Center Channel, and two surrounds. I’ve auditioned Klipsch, Polk, Infinity and Kef speakers so far and absolutely love the sounds of Kef Q7’s.
Which other brands should I look at prior to making my mind?
I have a budget of $1500 for the front L + R and $500 for the center channel.
Does anyone here own Kef speakers? Also I want to look at Axiom M 80’s and compare them with Kef to see which one sounds better. For the subwoofer I purchased HSU VT-3 MK 2 after hearing my friends set up.
* Which Rotel Amplifier
Trying to decide between the RMB-1095 and RMB-1075 not sure if I’ll need the extra power but want to get a unit that will easily drive 4 ohm speakers if I ever decide to upgrade and get power hungry speakers.
* Which system interconnects and speaker cable
Looking for advice on vendors/links to hook up the Rotel amplifier with my Harmon Kardon AVR 235.
Would 12 gauge speaker wire suffice in providing good sound quality or does the quality of speaker cable really help the speakers sound better.
I’m posting my questions on this forum as I’m positive on getting a Rotel amplifier and am looking for non-biased information on speakers without bashing any brand.
