Love my P3s in small office, nearfield and listen at low volume mostly. My budget was a bit lower than yours. I use Cambridge audio CXA81, SMSL SU-9 DAC, and a single REL TZero for a little low end help. Also my brand new Sonore Microrendu just arrived, so going to see if that improves things since I am streaming directly from computer to DAC right now. Still, pretty happy with set up and the P3s would be the last thing I would try to upgrade.
Bookshelf speakers for small room
I have a small room and listen rather closely. I'm using a Uniti Atom and some older Martin Logan 4s and looking to upgrade the whole system with a great turntable, tube amp and a different DAC. A local dealer demo'd me on the Harbeth P3 XD's and the vocals came through with crystal clarity- loved the sound! But he played it loud and I'm playing at very low volumes (kids, wife, small house).
What are some good bookshelf options for a small room and streamed music (and vinyl) played at lower volumes? A good tube amp/DAC to match??
