Are you open to the idea of buying pre-owned or surplus stuff? If you are then I suggest that you take a look at the celestion floorstanders and denon integrated amp being sold at the for sale section. May sukli ka pa pambili ng CDs or CD player
This is one of the most practical way - of course, your selection is kinda limited to whoever is selling his gears! But this is no different (not much choice) having just 25k for a brand new selection.
Since you are into rocks and jazz (and not into pure vocals or orchestra), personally, tube may not be it but highly powered amp at least 50w, good hitting bottom end speaker delivery. Without a subwoofer module, your speaker must have good bass handling capability. With not much power to fuel the sound, the speaker should be efficient enough so as not to demand much power and yet, give the SPL worhty of rock & jazz.
At 25k, and with many surplus shop/2nd hand gear shop around, the amount is more than enough. For a brand new one, it may not!
If you can postpone your birthday
, you can have ample time to audition the 2nd hand gears you can find, and end up with what's pleasing with your ear (for you will not have any inkling what kind of listeners are we - our respective subjectivities - compared to you) e.g. we may be satified just hearing the upper low bass to high freq but you may crave for bottom end. Really, the choice you can see from us is purely based on our respective preferences, which can be drastically different from your own expectation.
If your birthday is an unstoppable event
, spending 25k is 25k
- at this time, a huge money too dificult to let go, more so if spent not to the right gear which will fulfill your idea of music enjoyment
.
Go arm yourself with your CD and browse the surplus shop with name brands ranging from 6" to 12" bass driver, 2-3ways system, book shelf to towers. As synchro said, focus on which count the most - speakers. if you are not an audiophile nut through & through, some boutique expensive gears may not also be it - hear it for yourself - and dont trust our ears!
Then as obey said, you will have extras to spend for your DVD players! ... and probably a TT also
! IMHO, I can be rocking and jazzing for about half your budget - giving those orphaned gears a place to play their best!
Happy haunting!!!
