Need suggestions for a $1500 used system for my daughter.......

She just purchased her first house and she wants good sounding music playing soon! Yes, it seems I influenced her. 100% Tidal streaming. I will make all cabling for her. Small floor-standers or book shelf speakers.   Can be separates or an all in one. Needs to have a nice smooth and warmish sound.  She dislikes top end sizzle or bite. Full bodied sound is needed! Can be tubes, but only small signal tubes .... no power tubes.  Ok Agoners please offer me up some killer options! Most likely used with my small budget, but who knows?! Thanks in advance.

I like the Peachtree idea.  I will look into these units.

The Nola Boxer does look like a great option.  Need stands....Thanks Lak. 

@david_ten. Wow! I had not seen that Naim unit.  Hard for me to think it could match the sound of a Peachtree or Nuprime int amp with the Boxer? Interesting.

I getting the Boxers! Also a Nuprime Int amp.   Thanks all! Just need a decent streamer for cheap now.  MicroRendo perhaps used.  Any ideas? The Nuprime has a dac.

Thanks all! I ended up finding some nice Meadowlark Osprey speakers at a great price on Craigslist. Also purchased a Nuprime IDA-8 at a great price. Both for $1400 total. Now need to get a streamer for cheap with built in computer board as she does not have a laptop to use. Volumio is perfect, but costs too much.

@sherod


I am on it! Problem is she is far away.  Need two flights to see her.  One to see what’s in there and one to do the work 🙂

Unless you know the values?
