One box solution

Hello Everyone, 

I finally hit a wall with my health, I am almost 72 and have to downsize and move to a facility. It’s a very nice place but a lot smaller and my current set up can’t go so it’s all going in to storage. 

I am looking for a one box solution, the Naim Uniti Atom comes to mind but I am looking for better if that’s possible. My budget is 15k or less and has to have a remote, I don’t get around so good. Actually need bookshelf type speaker suggestions too…so 15k or less for speakers and 15k or less for a all in one intergrated…I will only stream so the box needs to have a Dac and everything built in, airplay,and Quboz…maybe the Uniti Atom is the best solution but was hoping for something better…thanks..

You might want good streaming headphones, with easy volume and mute, and tied into your TV so you can hear the TV without bothering others, mute temporarily for the 1,000 interruptions, back to it.

You can stream a variety of music genres thru your Smart TV’s Cable Box, some TVs have DVD/CD players built-in.

My mother made it to age 101, she lived in an excellent retirement setup; 1st 2 bedroom, then 1 bedroom, then assisted living, then nursing for the last few years, so I went thru all these stages with her, each move required different solutions.

when young, chasing full range, bookshelf speakers need subs

but when down the road, bookshelf speakers do not need subs, and they would be a problem in a facility with adjacent and nearby occupants, 

you might prefer your door open some times. even if you close your door, you don't want to have a problem every time your door is opened by visiting staff which progressively becomes beyond frequent.
