Question Beyond Muso2 and Sonos Play1?

[JoeSoap]

Looking for suggestions please. Presently listening (mostly 60's and 70's folk and rock) on a Naim Muso2 and a pair of Sonos Play1 speakers. I like both of the systems for their convenience. I like the sound of the Muso2 but to my (not young, 67 year old) ears the music never really leaves the box and that's disappointing. I like live music very much and the reproduction from the Muso2 just doesn't cut it. I think I can do better. I don't have a huge budget but it's flexible-ish. Listening room is 3m x 3m so I don't need massive amounts of power through large speakers. Quite the opposite really. If I could buy new Linn Kan speakers, they'd be ideal for me on stands. Open to suggestions. Currently I'm thinking a Naim Uniti Atom fits the bill at the front end, but no idea at all really about modern small speakers. My only interest is streaming, so not looking for anything beyond the Atom and a pair of small but lively speakers. Ideally the budget is around £2500 to 2600. Thanks for the interest.

Top of the budget, but would fit the bill both for size, and your intended use: Harbeth Monitor P3ESR, or for around £1,000 less Spendor A1.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. The stated budget is to buy the Uniti Atom and the speakers. I think the Uniti Atom is about £2200 so I'm ideally looking around the ~£300 mark for speakers. Give or take. Thanks.
