Serious music lover has a budget of $1500 to form a decent audio system. I am really a beginner with the hardware. I will only use the system for classical and light acoustic music and some vocals. It looks like I only need a two channel system. But to get better sound quality, I may need a pre-amplifier and an amplifier, so called seperates, if I am not misunstanding. For the speakers, I tend to choose Axiom M60 as it has good reputation and fit the budget.

I really appreciate it if anyone here could give me serious advice on brand and specific products of pre-amp, amp, cables, and CD-player that would fit my budget. I dream a long time to set up such a good quality music system and this may be the only chance I have. I notice that some people here post their audio system component list, but I have no clue about the price and even what are those names.
