Integrated Suggestions for a Garage System


Hi all,

 

Would appreciate some recommendations on revising my garage sound setup. Was running an old H&K AVR and Elacs which sounded good but want to find a more simplified solid state streaming integrated that could drive a pair of bookshelfs and perhaps a small sub (but not a requirement).

 

Goal is to keep it $1000 or under and ideally something with a reasonable footprint to hide away. WiiM has a well reviewed one and looked at the latest Bluesound Pwernode but open to options of course!

 

Thanks in advance.

I have been using a repurposed soundbar with a sub in my garage for years. (Philly area) Considering the potential for heat and humidity, this to me was a no brainer.

 

I found a older NAD T760 off craigslist for like $75.  Works great fro my purpose. 

Thanks all, some great suggestions. I did start thinking of a sound bar too given I have less space to work with after having the garage redone.

 

Or perhaps wait for the WiiM pro to come out, wasn't looking for a crazy setup but enjoy good music while I'm out there!
