Hi,
Noob here, so bare with me. I'm currently looking for a vintage marantz receiver, something along the lines of a 2226, 2230 or 2238. It will get used mostly to play mp3 from a external player or hooked up to the TV. Now then, i'm pretty much sold on getting a Marantz, even if the right deal has yet to present itself, but i have no idea which speakers to get. I'm leaning towards getting a set of used Bower & Wilkins DM302 which belong to a friend of a friend, for around 100€.
Being that my budget for receiver + speakers is around 350 to 400€, what you would advise me to get? I know that this question as been asked before, but around my town there aren't any thrift shops to look for this kind of equipment, so it would probably have to be bought from ebay, hence my many doubts.
Thanks.
