Purchase question
Hy!
I'm planning to buy receiver + floorstanding loudspeakers for hi-fi (not
home cinema) purpose.
I would mostly listen to mp3's (all kinds) and radio.
I founded these receivers and loudspeakers:
Receivers:
Kenwood KRF-V4550 DS
Kenwood KRF-V7070D
Yamaha V450 Titan
Yamaha V550 Titan
Yamaha RXV 457
Denon 1705
Harman Kardon 3380
Loudspeakers:
Jamo E570
Jamo E660
Jamo HCS6000 - for home cinema
Celestion F20
Celestion F30
JBL E30
Infinity Primus 250
Vtrek Fenglei No2 - for home cinema
Dali 6
Dali Blue 3003
Dali Blue 5005
What would you reccomend?
What sound card to buy (in range up to 80$)?
I prefer quality of sound over technical possibilities.
Thank you for your answers!

If you're listening to MP3's and radio, you have no concept of quality
sound.
Any radio shack junk will suit.
Now scram!

Disagree - at least *I* can't tell high bitrate, LAME encoded MP3's from
original source. I doubt many people (if any) could.

Now scram!
Wow! What a friendly welcome!
Anyway, to the Original Poster - That's quite a list, and I haven't
listened to anything on it. I do have some familiarity with some Yamaha
and Denon receivers and I've found them to be fine - in general I'd
recommend that you go for a receiver with lots of power. 100 wpc should
be just fine.
For speakers, you are going to have to listen to them yourself and see
what you like. I'd personally put as much of your budget to speakers as
you can afford. At the lower price range, I would recommend looking into
Paradigm, Axiom, NHT. For a bit more money PSB, B&W are good brands to
look into.
But, it's your system and you are the one who has to like it - do some
listening first.

I bought Dali Concept 6. I'm very satisfied with them.

Thanks. I already ordered Denon DRA-455 receiver.
Now I'm looking for the right sound card.

I think that will be fine - I have a Denon DRA-395, which I think is the
same unit except that the 395 has a bit more power.
I don't know much about sound cards though...

It's a good receiver. Plenty of oomph for driving most speakers
(and can run a pair of 4 ohm speakers if it has to, IIRC)
