The app control is very convenient for adjusting the sub from the listening position. Also comes with original packaging. Under warranty until March 2026.

I'll take them, pick up

Thanks guys. The Schiit gear looks great, and seems pretty close to what I'm after, except they do not have a speaker amplifier option? Only headphones it seems. I am also a bit unclear on how a headphone amp would connect to the rest of the system. Would it be: Source -> DAC -> Speaker amp -> Headphone amp, using the line out (or tape out? or record out?) of the speaker amp to the input of the headphone amp If so, I would need an amp with a line out, so that would rule out all but the Rega amp.

Hi everyone! I am new to the forum, and have had a great time reading about and looking at everyones awesome setups. I am now after one of my own for a home office (3.5m x 4m). I don't have a fixed budget, but would like to keep it under $1500 if possible. I am happy to pickup second hand gear (there seems some great bargains in the classifieds!). I think I most need help with matching the components, so I don't end up with a fantastic amp yet poor speakers, for example. I would prefer a separate DAC and amp so I can upgrade later on. The main source will be a laptop, so a DAC with USB is a requirement, thought optical in would also be useful. I have been looking for small footprint devices as they will be sitting on a desk. The amp seems the hardest component to find in a small size, but I have found the following options: Topping TP-60 (~$280) NAD D3020 (~$600, combined amp and DAC) Rega Brio-R (~$500 second hand) Denon PMA-50 (yet to be released, amp + DAC) Teac AI-101DA (yet to be released, amp + DAC) Of these, the Topping and Rega seem to be ideal as they are just amps. For the DAC, I have been looking at the Cambridge Audio DAC Magic 100 ($150-$200 second hand). Are there other options I should consider? I haven't yet looked at many speakers, as it seems easier to find small speakers than small amps, but so far the Cambridge Audio S30 (~$380) seems a great fit. Would these speakers be a good match to the amp options? What other speakers should I consider? Is there a general rule of thumb for spending on amp/DAC/speakers? Thanks everyone!

Thanks for the replies everyone. A few more details on what I'm after. I would prefer an amp + passive speakers, so it is possible to upgrade later on. I would also prefer a separate amp and DAC for the same reason. Main source will be a laptop, so a DAC with USB is required, but optical in would also be useful. Room is a mid sized bedroom, and desk is ~180cm x 75cm, so small footprint devices is a must. So far, I have narrowed down amp options to the following: Topping TP-60 (~$280) NAD D3020 (~$600, combined amp and DAC) Rega Brio-R (~$500 second hand) Denon PMA-50 (yet to be released, amp + DAC) Teac AI-101DA (yet to be released, amp + DAC) Of these, the Topping and Rega seem to be ideal. For the DAC, I have been looking at the Cambridge Audio DAC Magic 100 ($150-$200 second hand). Are there other options I should consider?

Hi guys, I've just signed up to get some advise on stereo gear for my work desk. Not a huge amount of space, so I have been looking for compact amps, which seem hard to come by! Will keep an eye on the classifies section for an amp, DAC and maybe some speakers that would be good for a small area.
