That ABC link is dead, only thing I could find is this:

Anyone found a more recent article?

EDIT: Just realised this was satire. Welp anyway.

LAST UPDATE:

I ultimately went for the Yamaha A-S301 receiver/amplifier, paired with some second-hand KEF LS50 Meta speakers.

Around 7:00 PM, I finished work and had just eaten. That's when I got everything connected: I cut the speaker cables to length and connected the wires to the banana plugs. Removed some caps from the amplifier, so I could use the banana plugs, and wired everything up.

However, since I hadn't received all the cables yet, I had to get a bit creative to get some input into the receiver. In the end, I used the DAC from my headphones (JDS Labs Atom DAC) with an RCA cable and a USB-B to USB-C cable, along with my laptop.

My mother cried when she heard it, she thought it sounded so beautiful. I might have shed a tear myself. I've never heard such amazing sound in my life, it's truly magnificent.

In the upcoming days, and years I'm looking forward to enjoying it even more, but I'm genuinely thrilled with this purchase.

Oh that’s good to know, thanks for letting me know :)

Just checked the prices of the peachtree amps, they look gorgeous, but are about 3-5x my budget.

Thanks for sharing your experiences.

I haven’t been able to find the “emotiva mini-x a-100” for sale anywhere in Europe, so I guess that won’t be an option.

Good to know that the S501 works well with those vintage speakers. Then I guess it will probably work fine with the LS50s as well.

Definitely adding that one to the comparison, never heard of it before.

Thanks again :)

Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll add it to the comparison!

The AXA35 is €410 over here, just wasn’t sure if 35W would be enough to drive em after reading online that people prefer 50-100W.

Thank you very much for your help.

Glad to know that the A-S301 is sufficient. I never heard about music streamers, that looks very handy to have, definitely adding that to the setup!
