Problem ko with Airmotiv is kelangan pa pre-amp. I'm looking for something that you can just turn on, connect and play without the need of other devices..

I believe it can be used from any line level source without a preamp.

With an iPod or other source as a small room or office stereo

Post by: jjlovemusic on Jan 06, 2017 at 05:30 PM: not really a bookshelf, but you might also want to consider 2pcs of HK Onyx Studio 3 speakers in your list. :)
SQ has very much improved since the first version.

Nadinig mo to sir?

Post by: sientobente on Jan 06, 2017 at 11:33 PM: Meron sa LIS dati idol, Dynaudio Xeo. Narinig ko na din to, it retains the sound signature of the Excite in a smaller scale. Siguro mostly designed siya for near-field listening.
