Saw Zeos’s raving review for the Jamo S803 and it’s just in my price range and looks amazing aesthetically and I am inclined to buy them. It would cost about 314 USD after shipping to Singapore, which seems reasonable, (import tax + shipping anything that heavy over here would be around 100 USD easily)
However I also hear some inconsistent reviews especially about its build quality and it’s V-shaped sound signature, which might be unsuitable for certain genres like classical, which I do enjoy very much, though I also love pop and rock as well.
Would like to hear what you guys think!
I just want to say, you probably can get these for way less, used.
I also saw the Jamo 803 5.1 system for 200$US on Amazon. Yes. 200$ for a 5.1. 
So… look for sales.
Triangle is from France, BR02s may cost less for you. Laid-back treble.
Wharfedale is also a great brand from UK (some of their speakers are a bit treble-y, though).
Thanks for the advice! I’m not familiar with used audio equipment in general, are they a good idea? We don’t have an active resale market here in Singapore at least and I see only one listing for a Jamo S803 that’s pretty expensive anyway on our local resale platform.
I forgot to mention I’m getting these for a small desktop setup, so I probably can’t get the 5.1 stuff.
There are some BR02s in my local online stores, but they’re about $40 USD more than what the Jamos would cost, and I can’t seem to find any European retailers that shipped those here
Huh 40$ more is still a steal because they’re 450$USD here… lol.
And even at 450$USD some reviewers said it was the best speakers they heard for under 1000$.
For less, Edifier is a Chinese brand, and even the R1700BT are excellent, “too good” for the price. They’re inexpensive but DSP corrected (Digital Signal Processing, digitally adjusted to sound better).
Oh jesus I didn’t know they were supposed to be (much) better! They’re $499 SGD (~358 USD) here

You lucky! Great, classy speakers to listen to classical music with! 
Thanks, this is looking to be an amazing recommendation! I’m glad I came here for advice before I jumped the gun on the Jamos
