Wallgomez Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Hi All, First post, so apologies if this is the wrong spot to ask this. I'm new to Home Theatre, and based in Australia buying the following set of Q Acoustics speakers secondhand for AUD$800, just wanted to assure myself that I'm not overpaying. 2x Q Acoustics 2050i Q Acoustics 2000c Centre Q Acoustics 3070S Subwoofer Onkyo NT-555 7.2 Receiver No surrounds, but I'm currently living in a house with two suitable in-ceiling speakers, so the pack suits that well. Additionally, all speakers are white, not sure how that would affect re-sale value down the line. Is AUD$800 reasonable for all of this? Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloth Ears Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 It's probably about right for them. As long as you can confirm that they all work (together) before you part with your hard-earned cash. I don't see why you couldn't pass them on for around the same amount later on. They are not the be-all/end-all for HT, but they should allow you to listen to music and play movies with satisfaction. As long as you don't want wall-cracking bass, or to be able to distinguish what the individuals in the second violins are doing, you should be perfectly fine with this set-up. Don't forget you'll need a screen/TV and a source (disk player and maybe a turntable). The HT amp won't be able to pass anything more that "Full HD" picture, so probably not worth going to 4K/UHD for your video stuff. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems fairly reasonable, maybe a smidge high if secondhand but the speakers are really nice for the money. I think you’ll be happy if you get them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallgomez Posted June 7 Author Share Posted June 7 Thanks @Pops110 & @Cloth Ears! I ended up picking up the set. Compared to the HTIB Sony setup I had prior the 2050i's are extraordinary Your advice is greatly appreciated! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just waiting on shipping of my second QA 2070Si sub, very happy with my first one, so thought I would add another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
