Newbie here, overjoyed I found this forum, hope I can contribute some value. But right now, I'm needy.
I'm putting together a light duty system for the bedroom, and I'm considering the KEF Q Compacts with the Denon DRA-295 Stereo Receiver. (The reason I'm interested in the Denon is that it has video inputs (dvd/vcr/v.aux)and does video switching, even though it's a stereo amp.)
The amp would drive 2 sets of speakers: I have my eye on the KEF Q Compacts for the bedroom, and I have already installed JBL SP6C's in the adjoining bathroom ceiling. The Denon is only 50W/channel, so I think it'll match nicely with the Q Compacts. The Q1's aren't much more, but the Compacts size is a plus since I can hide them away in the armoire next to the amp (when not in use of course).
I have snobby ears and beggar's pockets, so the goal is a small system, with great sound, for cheap. How does this set-up sound to you guys? Are there other amps I should consider? Will the Q Compacts disappoint as main speakers, even for a light duty system?
