Thank you the swift reply!
I just need a quick clarification, do both the Micca OriGain’s have a DAC? Because there are 2 versions: the AD250 and the A250. The AD250 has DAC in the title, but in the comparison table below, it doesn’t mention anything about one not have a DAC.
Thanks
I wouldn't pick up one of those amps. One of the features for one of them is that they don't spark when plugging power in.
For an amp, try this Micca Origain.
If you have the room, a receiver might be better for you. This Yamaha R-S202 would work well, but only works with 8 ohm speakers.
For speakers, you have a few options.
Klipsch R-14M
Pioneer SP-BS22-LR(6 ohm)
The Micca MB42X when they come back in stock.
Also, if you can build them, C-Note Speaker Kit. These will be better than any other cheap speaker you can find new. Will need around $50-100 in tools to build them.
As far as cheap subs go, this Dayton Audio SUB-1000 might be your best bet.

You just need an amp with a sub out. It won't do much input switching. But your budget is r/choosingbeggars anyway.

If you want an avr you need to go used.
Newly acquired audio gear:
Tiki the parakeet also pictured. He too can produce loud audio.

Guess what the speaker stands are made of... They're definitely not stacked toilet paper rolls wrapped in black construction paper.
You can get a small amp that fits under your monitor. But also, definitely look around for used Kantos!

tons of options.
Micca Oragain to go all micca - https://www.amazon.com/Micca-OriGain-Compact-Integrated-Amplifier/dp/B01M0SL7YC
SMSL SA50 or SA36
If you want a built in DAC, Topping MX3 or SMSL AD18
Well, you can get something like this Micca 2.0 speaker amp for just those two. This SMSL 2.1 Speaker / headphone amp with dac and bluetooth to add a sub. This Denon 5.1 receiver as a cheap receiver, or higher end receiver if you want.
​
It all depends on what you want to do now, how much you want to spend, what your goals are.
​
Also, there are definitely other options to the 3 i linked. The micca doesnt have digital inputs, but some do. The SMSL has a remote, but is a bit expensive since the Denon offers more for the same price.
Long time lurker, first time poster :)
I'm trying to find an amp solution for my desktop setup. I switch between speakers and headphones frequently, my current DaytonAudio DTA-120 has decided to start to fail on me. Frequently one or both monitors will fizzle/crackle when I turn it on and not produce sound, I've tested the monitors with my home theater amp and no problem there. 100% of the time if the amp is on and I unplug my headphones, one or two speakers will fizzle out/not work. I'm trying to decide if I should be looking into a higher quality headphone/speaker combo amp (although they're hard to find without going full size) or break it out into two separate amps, like the Magni for my headphones and Micca Origain (? unsure about this one) for speakers and just split coming off the DAC.
Edit: Should also add the solution I'm looking for is < $300, I'm OK with used items.
In a smaller viewing area, like I think you're describing, small speakers like the passive MB42X ($79.99) will be adequate and 100% better than TV speakers. Add in a small amp (no DAC, just let the TV do that for now) for $79.99 and you're set at about $160.00. Use the left over cash for decent speaker wire and some isolation pads.
In the future, shift the whole rig to another TV or a PC or use the little speakers for a rear surround setup.
MB42X
A250
Micca 6' Speaker Wire
Micca Isolation Pads
To stay within your $100-$200 budget, I suggest the following:

Mix and match any of these within your budget and you will do just fine. I highly recommend the Polk S15's with the Lepai amp though.
I imagine it'd be possible to grab something like these:

then run a pair of hi fi speakers from them.
it's really comes down to how hard you listen to music. if you're the type tnsh uses music to fill the silence and to kind of treat as if it's a sound track to your mood or activity then you're fine with anything okay. if you're the type that habitually immerses yourself fully with music then hi fi matters a lot. good hi fi is practically a drug. I don't even smoke pot any more because I can experience the same hyper reality just by tuning completely into music. I was talking to another music lover about the same thing. there was a time when pot actually kind of trained you into acquiring razor sharp sensory focused but after experiencing it you can actually do it sober and the more hi fidelity the audio is the more fully captivating it becomes
Hey guys, I am new to this community. I built some C-notes and paired it with an Micca Origain:
&#x200B;
https://smile.amazon.com/Micca-OriGain-Compact-Integrated-Amplifier/dp/B01M0SL7YC?sa-no-redirect=1
&#x200B;
I get some distortion in the mids when I have my PC at 100% volume and the Origain at say 35% and up. Where should I start to troubleshoot this?
Likely just an rca to 3.5mm to my computer. Would something like this this work?
Cool, thanks. So just to be sure, is this what you were talking about? I'm only asking because it only has 2 reviews so I just wanted to be careful before purchasing.

Well I don't have any of the audio equipment yet for my desk but the stuff I was looking at was,
The Polk Audio PSW10

And for the amp i'm still unsure but something like this:

And for the speakers:

That's all assuming I wouldn't have powered speakers.
