Hey guys, first time poster here. Found this site doing research for my entry level foray into hi-fi. Based on excellent reviews and my amour for Rotel aesthetics, I've decided to get the Rotel 1520 CD player and pair it with the matching 1520 integrated amplifier for a 2 channel music listening in my 1 bedroom apartment living room. But now comes the question: which speakers? I'm probably doing this backward, and should have built the CD/Amp around the speakers, but I'm not the most sensible guy sometimes.
I hear that B&W matches quite well with Rotel so I've been scoping out some a pair of B&W CM1's, but would like to know (from experience if possible) other, good-sounding alternatives from other makes. Candidates include the NHT Classic 3 and Paradigm Studio 20, though I hear the Paradigm's could make this system too "bright."
Your thoughts? I may soon audition some speakers at a nearby shop that carries Rotel, but my budget only allows for used or discounted online purchases.
Thanks
