Thinking of picking it up as the main sound system for my new pad. The rate at which I'm moving around I refuse to go through a shipping/selling process of a decent tower set up

Anyone have one? Worth the $600?

Thanks!

The sound is pretty mediocre, but compared to similar products, it isn't bad. For $600 you get what you pay for.

Thats fair....

Any other single units that sound good? Its less of a price factor and more of a convenience factor

The Geneva Sound systems look dope...

Man do I love B&W. Once I'm a productive member of society a B&W Hi-Fi and a Barcelona Chair will be two of the first additions to my starter pad.

If that is the case, I would suggest this - Krell Audio Components KID and the optional amplifier it slides into. All you would need is a set of speakers.

Picky, picky . You could still keep that relatively compact with some nice bookshelf speakers. In the end, it is only two small speakers and one component, all of which could be kept tidy and discreet on a shelf or bookcase.

If it absolutely must be an all-in-one setup, the B&W is fine for what it is. I would also recommend taking a look at the Meridian F80 - Meridian F80 - Engineered to Excel

Yes. all-in-one is hugely preferential though i know it is sonically inferior.

Have you ever heard the Geneve Sound L?

I have not. My all-in-one experience is pretty limited.
