Me too, I ate one sour too.
As the family expands, I am finding that I spend more and more of what little listening time I still have in the company of the desktop speakers in my office.
Currently these are a pair of Meridian M30 active monitors, which are OK, but they are very low gain and sound far better from 10' than 3' and I suspect I could do better.
I have never really given serious consideration to a desktop or nearfield setup, so would welcome advice ads to what sort of devices are best suited to this purpose.
Modern LS3/5a's (Spendor S3/5's, Harbeth P3's etc)? Or some fancy pro monitors? JR149's and a stereo 20 (Tony? )?
Pre is a Linn Akurate Kontrol/D, if that is germane to the discussion, and I would rather not replace this as it does a whole bunch of stuff very well for a single neat box.
I have a Quad QSP and a BK Sub that could be co-opted into this solution.
Suggestions welcome.
cheers
