I am looking to get some new desk speakers for Christmas. I’ve got a good dac/amp and headphones, but my speaker situation is horrid. I really wanted the AudioEngine a5+ speakers but I didn’t pull the trigger quick enough on Black Friday/Cyber Monday. I have been recommended Kanto YU5’s as an alternative. Does anyone know of other alternatives or if you can vouch for the Kantos (link below)?

Is there empty space to the side of the tv? I would recommend powered monitors, especially ones with an aux in and sub out, such as the Kanto YU5’s, which are available in many colors, most for $370, you could then add a subwoofer to fit the remainder of your budget.

I wouldn’t even say Bose are worth half their price. 27″ is utterly narrow, if you can fit 28″, get this Vizio model.

Another option is getting a stereo amp and using either Micca Covo-S’ (ok without a subwoofer) or the Kanto Ben’s (need a subwoofer).

Might be easier to get an all in one system. These seem to have decent reviews. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KONGQTM/ref=psdc_7073956011_t1_B00AMAJG8U
