I have a friend that wants me to put together a 2ch system for about $1K for a 16x30 area. His requirements are that it must be a receiver with remote , it must use a CD changer and it must use floor stander speakers, non negotiable!

I have come up with the HK 3490 receiver on sale for $279 Plenty of high current power for a large room and a great buy at this price

The Marantz CC4003 cd changer on sale for $199

And any of the following speakers-

Wharfedale Evo2-20 for $429

Music Direct - WHARFEDALE - EVO2-20 ROSEWOOD (PR) **PHOTO SHOOT**

Monitor Audio M4's $500pr

Monitor Audio - M4 - Tower Loudspeaker-Audio Advisor

Mordaunt Short Carneval 6's $500pr

Mordaunt-Short - Carnival 6 - Tower Speaker-Audio Advisor

Any other suggestions?
