Advice on receiver and possibly subwoofer.
Im buying my first setup in. My budget is around $500 and my location is Norway. I’m going for a stereo with cinema receiver, so I can later upgrade with more speakers. I already have a 99.w12.16 xtz subwoofer.
I want clean sound, but I’m not crazy about audio quality. I want some punch, volume and alright hi-fi.
I have found a setup with Klipsch RF 82, Pioneer VSX-LX52 and Klipcsh RC 42 ll.
I have also found a cheap Onkyo TX-NR616.
Should I go for LX52 or NR616?
Also I bought the 99.w12.16 xtz subwoofer and was a little disappointed. I compared it to a dynavoice mw12. The xtz did definitely go deeper, but slightly less volume. I had to use both xtz eq to get close to the mw12.
