As a temporary solution, I want to get a speaker selector (i listened to rotel a12, cambridge 651a and creek 50a, with my speakers, and all sounded almost the same as with my NAD, so I need to check more options)   you think this one will do the job without harm to the speakers or amp?  ...

nope , just before sleeping ;-)   anyway, now i'm thinking, for next year to upgrade the NAD D3020, move it to the bedroom to feed the dali's.   Then for the Paradigm's get a new one, which can be the NAD D7050, maybe Marantz PM6005, or even a Creek Evolution 50A (and anything else you might...

Thanks, it looks like a good option, I can order it from ebay with free shipment. The usage is more than nearfield, mostly from bed. maybe 0.7 meter facing it, so 2.5-3m, but the room is not big, so this setup should be ok.

Thanks. maybe stick to the cable and switch plan to start.

Anyone knows the Audioengine N22? will it be enough to drive the Zensor 1s? This might be more convenient then pulling cables+switch, and i'm still in less than 500$ budget.   thanks

Yes, I was thinking about the Atoms as a 2nd pair, since they are the same brand and excellent too, but the Dali's sounded just great, and I actually asked the seller if there was no sub playing somewhere. It was a nice weighty bass and the rest of the sound sounded real (this is what I get with...

Before I bought the NAD, I was also testing the Teac. They are priced very closely here, the Teac is even more expensive, I guess because it is imported by small audio shops and NAD is in the big malls. 

Since my mb air is connected to the NAD, I can control itunes (all lossless) with my phone/ipad. I'm now mainly using Tidal hifi, but no remote for it yet. I did test bt , it's ok but with some drops. On a side note, there's a weird problem with my xperia z3 sending music to the NAD- it won't...

thanks,   it's not a bad solution, but I'll be lazy to move it twice a day... I better find a good speaker selector, to make it as hassle free as possible.

so, i went to one shop in Bangkok that sells Dali speakers (that I know of), since the Zensor 1 price dropped to about 240$. took me 10 minutes to order...they sounded just great with this price that was a must.    now waiting for them to arrive, as it is by shop order. anyway, thinking...

ok, now after more thinking I flipped again. I prefer to buy new passives for the bedroom, maybe the Paradigm Atoms or similar, it's about 360$ here.  invest in a new amp for the living room, in the 600$ range, and move the NAD to the bedroom. this way I get a great compact bedroom system, and...

only the pioneers are available, the amps here are all the traditional type. I'm leaning towards the q bt3. it's quite good and very convenient, one complete package.   But i'm still gonna look for more active speakers/monitors here, there's no rush.   thanks all

Thanks, Can't even find emotive here, which sucks. Will keep looking though.

thanks,   so a Lepai would be enough for decent bookshelves? I like the Paradigm sound, I could go with Atoms for 400$, which has the same signature, with less bass. another option is the 200$ Pioneer pair (forgot the model)   I live in Thailand, and can't find Dayton here, would love to...

Thanks, great answer, it will give me some direction.   Probably will look for a T amp and check cheaper bookshelves with it.    another thing I was thinking is to wait a few months, move the main one to the bedroom and invest in a new main system. Then I have to see what will be a good...

Hi,   I am looking to put a small audio system in my bedroom, been listening to a few powered speakers and my top 2 choices are Audioengine A2+ and q accoustics BT3. The problem is that I keep comparing the sound to my living room system, which is a Paradigm mini monitors 7 with an NAD D3020-...
