Just for info my home studio set-up for mixes etc is the usual CDJ/DJM600 mix thorough to an old Cambridge Audio A1 amp which is connected to Gale Silver Monitors. For a small room it's fine, decent detail and good bass. Recording is direct from the rec out on the DJM. PC is also connected to the amp going the other way so I can play music/run production software/Traktor/games etc.

If that's all you need then you don't need to spend much.

However in my living room I have a Marantz amp bi-wired to large Mission floor standers. Big room so needs more.

Funny enough I was looking at the A1s and wondering if they would be up to the job.

Thanks for your help mate, much appreciated Smile

Couldn't find the A1 on sale any more, but I'm tempted by this one:

I'm just worried the output wouldn't be loud enough (I never understood how watts equate to volume etc)
