Budget speaker (10k budget)

[koltkommando]

I am searching for a budget setup for my computer.
Mostly I ll be using them for movies and games.Music only in case I am lazy to plug my grado SR 225 to system.
I heard of circle arko 80 being sold for a loot price but couldn't get my hand on them.
So I was wondering instead of shedding 7 k amount on circle arko, shouldn't I go for a better alternative.
I am looking for an active speaker for the reason to keep my budget low.
If I can get a good deal with passive and amp combo( used) I am willing to take them

Audio Engine A2 comes to mind also M Audio has an active model in that range.

Cambridge audio S30 (9k) + Toppings(2.5K)= Close to 10K.

I second spirovious. Cambridge S-30 for 10.5k and TA2021 from Indeed Labs Ebay for about 4.5k.

Or, JBL Control 1 + Topping for the same cost..

Hi I have wharf 9.0 and Magnat supreme 1000s and ca s30s. Among these the s30 are the best for music with topping. Absolute treat to listen. I rate them far better than jbl control 1s for a bit more money.

If u choose to go the topping route then try amp+dac combo. Google for topping dac, u will get the details. I suggest indeed hifi as the best one to buy topping amps.

If u want to enter tube world, another option is to get a qinpu q2 and upgrade the tube. I have this amp, fantastic for music.

if you listening close by PC , then go with smaller sizes like audio engine a2 or logitech s715.. otherwise seperate amp and stereo speakers need some breathing space for listening..
