If you had to downsize to smaller, more buget...

If you were forced to downsize and have to live with lower priced and perhaps smaller gear, what would you choose in amp, dac and speakers, etc., that best reflects your music/soundtrack tastes that your best gear has given you, albeit perhaps to a lesser degree?

What positive qualities are gained while minimizing SQ issues do the equipment choices working together provide or avoid?

Might help those downsizing or looking for a smaller, less expensive but competent system.

How low in price can you go?  What's you experience?

Ifi Aurora looks like a very interesting all in one. Some hard to believe specs too for its' size.

I guess it's all a relative question.  I have two systems. One amp is a Hegel h160 and the other is a Keces E40.  I am liking the little Keces as it has really good performance given its' design and size. 

So any audio products which offer surprising performance within its' means is fair game.  It could cost a $100 and say up to $2000 to keep it in the ballpark.

I am looking at putting together well performing smaller systems, which is possible and fun.  There are seemingly alot of boutique/smaller companies that are producing some surprising products at various price points of course, which makes it relative. I think there are quite a few many of us haven't been exposed to. Some are up and comers, some will be short lived, but while available, I'd like to know about them.

Use an example, you are retiring and need to sell off much of your gear as you won't have room for it.  You still want to enjoy your music, what would you consider in a smaller space and at a lower price?
