bedroom system need quality at low volume

For a bedroom system, I cannot image getting anything better than the amazing Shanling MC-30 receiver. All-in-one box with cd player, nice tuner, and a marvelous 3 watts of tube set power. 3 watts is surprisingly powerfull, more than enough for a bedroom system, sound more like 30-40 solidstate watts. To top it off, great remote, mp3 player dock, and looks great. All for audiophile peanuts considering what you are getting. Get this and a decent pair of bookshelfs. Whats not to like?

Good luck.

I've really been enjoying a pair of DeVore Gibbon 3 monitors in a small office room as a 3rd system. Amazing range, very flexible in terms of placement and great sound. The model 3 comes rear ported but can be special ordered as front ported from the factory. In this small system, I am using Eastern Electric tube gear. Very pleasing to listen to! Also, check out Fritz speakers. Great, handmade quality with a tremendous selection for various applications. Fritz will also customize for you, as he did with my handmade subwoofer.

A Watt is a Watt is a Watt.
