    Price/quality ratio on my first setup, what do you think?

    The sound of your audio system 80% depends on how good acoustic conditions in your room. To improve the “sound” of your room, you can use both active correction methods (Dirac, YPAO, Cavern EQ, etc.), as well as passive - various acoustic panels, bass-traps, etc. And only after you solve the...

    Old speakers' power rating

    :ROFLMAO: Don't fill your head with unnecessary thoughts. You have small speakers, which are not a problem for any amplifier, and the problem of "compatibility" of speakers and amplifier in home audio also does not exist. Therefore, buy any home audio amplifier and listen to music.

    Question Using a budget power amp with an audiophile integrated amp?

    The stories of audiophiles that an amplifier affects the sound is a myth that dates back to the 1960-70s, when audio technology was just in its infancy and circuitry was imperfect. Today, choosing an amplifier “by sound” makes no sense; all transistor amplifiers in typical home rooms “sound” the...

    Room size vs Equipement power

    There's nothing useful there. The choice of acoustics is offered according to marketing parameters such as frequency and impedance, which are manipulative concepts. You need to focus on the volume of the case, speaker size and sensitivity

    Advice new hifi system

    A waste of money, expensive little fancy speakers that are too small for your room. Buy WiiM AMP + normal passive large speakers, for example JBL E100 with 10" woofers, or if you are in the USA, then Cerwin Vega

    The problem is your speakers and your listening room, not the amplifier.

    Arcam SA-20 Upgrade

    This is a very popular misconception in the audiophile world. In fact, a modern (transistor) amplifier does not have any audible effect on the sound; it makes sense to choose only the functionality and design you need.

    Question Which amp for driving Acoustic Energy AE120 MkII ?

    Which amplifier is suitable for this acoustic system is a question like “Which car is suitable for this radio” 🤦‍♂️ :D Any modern transistor amplifier works fine with any modern speaker systems, “better or worse” is a question for the speaker and your room

    Question Should I get new speakers?

    HA-HA-HA What's the point of talking about innovation if it's not useful? I can also make square wheels for a car and explain that this is an innovation

    Question Should I get new speakers?

    You are not right. Loudspeaker technology hasn't changed at all since 1986

    Dual Mono / Monoblock - L/R Channel Separation

    Dual mono makes no practical sense. The difference between a regular amplifier and dual mono can only be seen in the laboratory
