Audiophiles hifi appreciation thread old and new

As per the last page, I've been using a Marantz PM6004 and a pair of Monitor Audio BX2 speakers (with a Project Debut Carbon turntable) and I'm delighted with how it sounds.

The Yamaha AS500 amp was also near the top of my list and they're both loud enough to get complaints from neighbours.

I'm thinking about getting a Yamaha AS500 too when I can get some cash together. No idea where to start with speakers though, I've got a budget of around £200 I guess.
