So I'm looking to sell my Paradigm Atoms and my Audioengine A2's (AND my Shure E500's) and hopefully save up enough to buy myself a nice amp and passive bookshelves.
I'm hoping to aim for about a $600 budget. A bit about myself:
I love the Beyerdynamic DT880 sound. I listen to upbeat electronica, such as this
My first question is, should I be looking at a 400 / 200 split on speakers/amp?
I will probably be using my Maverick Tube Magic D1 Dac and use a netbook full of flac as my source. This leads to my second question, would the Maverick dac be my weakest link, since it was originally made for headphones?
My speaker preference would be Paradigm, and I'm more than happy to buy used.
What speakers and amps would you recommend?
