Looks like there are basically two available options I can find online from reasonable outlets, both similarly priced towards the top of my budget;
Kudos Super 10
ProAc D2R (also D2D)
Not sure which to hit the button on.
In favour of Kudos, they're more of a known quantity as I had their C10s for a few years which are very similar (that said I did get rid of them, albeit for reasons that are perhaps fixed by the S10). They're also priced much higher new (whatever that means), and generally have a great rep. Against, they could perhaps be considered 'older' tech - not necessarily a bad thing of course.
For ProAcs, they seem to have a soaring rep running with Naim, and also have the charm of the new. Front ports is a plus.
I'll likely make a decision over the weekend, any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
I could of course wait a bit for demos to be back on the table, tho finding a shop that have both to compare locallish might be a long-shot (separate demos are pretty pointless, I find demos generally have limited value as they aways sound completely different when you get them home).
