Want to setup basic home audio system

As the title states, I am looking for advice on the main components required to get a basic home audio system going for under 1k. When I do get to save more money, I am open to add more into the system. For now, what are the basic components of a home audio system that I mainly need to focus on right now? I am not looking to get a home theater setup. ONNLY LOOKING TO GET HOME AUDIO SYSTEM FOR MUSIC

This thread obviously tapped into the enthusiasm that we all feel for the music and the gear.  We look forward to hearing about others’ systems almost as much as we enjoy our own.  I know I look forward to hearing how diripio’s listening space comes together and his enjoyment of it.  Keep us posted!

Check out Denon receivers.  You get pretty good bang for the buck.
Wharfedale  has some nice speakers you might want to check out.
Older Klispch speakers Can be found for a good price.  Look at Ref 3 MKll towers @$200.
You might want to explore USB cables to connect your computer to the receiver.. It’s amazing the difference it can make.

Let us know what you bought and why.

All the best.
