One box solution


Hello Everyone, 

I finally hit a wall with my health, I am almost 72 and have to downsize and move to a facility. It’s a very nice place but a lot smaller and my current set up can’t go so it’s all going in to storage. 

I am looking for a one box solution, the Naim Uniti Atom comes to mind but I am looking for better if that’s possible. My budget is 15k or less and has to have a remote, I don’t get around so good. Actually need bookshelf type speaker suggestions too…so 15k or less for speakers and 15k or less for a all in one intergrated…I will only stream so the box needs to have a Dac and everything built in, airplay,and Quboz…maybe the Uniti Atom is the best solution but was hoping for something better…thanks..

The Lyngdorf 3400 is great sounding in terms of an integrated. It is not heavy which is also a plus for you. Also, it consumes very little power and hardly even gets warm! The room correction feature also does wonders in helping remove room challenges.  Highly recommended.

@silverfoxvtx1800 Sorry to hear about your health issues and hope that being able to continue to enjoy music in your new facility brings you happiness and comfort. We will all be there at some point. 

For speakers my recommendation would be the YG Audio Cairn or Borreson X1 with the dedicated stands..You won't need a big speaker in a small room...
 For an amp/streamer/DAC:
Hegel H400...
 I would also recommend a really good pair of headphones for listening during later hours..Look at HiFiMan from the Arya Organic & up...

 

@jc4659 thanks actually it’s a struggle going shopping and doing all the every day chores so having everything done for me probably won’t be to bad of a adjustment. 7k a month is a lot but I should be ok…after my house sells..

all the suggestions are excellent, Humm a good set of headphones also would be the way to go for late night listening…for tv and music.

 

Sorry to hear about your situation.

If I was presented with this situation I would find good high end dealer and trade in all your old system components and buy the very highest level you can. Storage at this time of life makes little sense... I'm 73. Buy buying up you will get more from your old equipment and will get a really high quality one box... would two do it? Linn Klimax + amp.

What part of the country do you live in?
