Default Re: Help me buy things- win up to 100$!

If you're really into music you should look at getting some of the following things:

1. A Squeezebox - this is similar to a Slingbox but works for music. Essentially, you store all your music on a network drive, and the Squeezebox uses the wireless network to play said music through your sound system. http://www.slimdevices.com/ Squeezebox also has the advantage that it's easy to integrate with online radio stations and sites like Pandora.

2. Get a Valve Amplifier. Seriously. They don't have to be expensive, and while valves do burn out after ~10k hours of use, they're mostly very easy to replace - you can search for sellers on ebay and often there are huge amounts of very high quality military surplus valves going around. This site - http://www.iconaudio.co.uk/products.htm - should give you an idea of prices; they're in £s, so double them.

3. Speakers. Important, obviously. This site http://www.roadsters.com/speakers/#Intro has a listing of many high-end audio manufacturers and should be a good indication of the sort of thing you'd like to buy.

So get all those things, hook them up with your computer and wireless network and you can have an extremely high quality audio setup. These things don't have to be incredibly expensive either. Total cost for a decent valve amp and speaker system will be in the ~$4k range. Also, valve amplifiers look incredible and will without a doubt be the sexiest piece of hardware you can own.

Hope that helps with the high-quality music/ speakers part of your problem.
