    Speakers are a very personal choice. You need to decide if you want floorstanders, standmounts, bookshelf types and how much room they'll have. Have a budget in mind too.

    I'd suggest starting a thread in the Blank Canvas section asking for opinions and outlining your thoughts, I'm sure you'll get some suggestions.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Agree with the amplifier suggestions. Quad amps work well with most musical genres.

    Having read some reviews, I would prefer either a Cyrus or a Musical Fidelity system. The new system will be second hand, as I can't afford new. To be honest, I would love to get a Cyrus aca7.5 with Cyrus apa monoblocks with the right speakers for them.. The living room/ kitchen for my flat is 5.389m X 3.852m and 2.685m in hieght.
    The floor has a 5mm underlaid carpet.

    I do like to listen to all sorts of music, but mainly specialising in Heavy metal and goth.

    ou might slip, you might slide, you might
    Stumble and fall by the road side
    But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
    Remember you're walking up to heaven

    Don't let nobody turn you around
    … Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
    Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
    And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down
