i currently have the sabaja30a and while i really like the sound quality and power it provides, there are issues coming out in the open that's making me think 2x about keeping it. i have elac dbr62 and svs sb2000 currently connected to the a30a and most of the time listen via wiim.
i'm looking at several options up to or less than $1k w/ a relatively compact footprint as i will use it on my wfh desktop set up. some of them are below and would like to pick the expert brains of asr members as to which you think is a good replacement in case i finally decide to return the a30a (i.e. i have until jan 31 to return my purchase to amazon and will for sure put in a review about it, in case i pursue this option):
can you please help me understand if the choices i listed above satisfy what's important to me and which in your opinion will give me best value for the $$$? or if you have better suggestions, i will greatly appreciate that too.

- mission778x @$749
- svs prime wireless pro soundBase @ $699
- basx ta1 @ $599
- basx ta2 @ $999
- power to fully drive the dbr62 - im happy with the power of the a30a so anything similar or more is good. not sure how to interpret the power rating of the above choices due to some terms im not familiar or do not fully understand, like different thd rating and such
- w/ sub out for my sb2000
- good sound quality - i know this is subjective, but i really prefer something closer to a neutral sound with great clarity and wide sound stage.
- all in one solution (i.e. dac/amp or full digital like a30a). im open to separates but im a noob when it comes to mixing and matching so, not sure i can find a good combination by myself and limit total cost up to $1k only
- relatively compact footprint like the a30a, as this will be on my wfh desktop. im a bit hesitant about the basx coz its comparably a bit too wide & deep but since it's not too tall, i can probably make it work
can you please help me understand if the choices i listed above satisfy what's important to me and which in your opinion will give me best value for the $$$? or if you have better suggestions, i will greatly appreciate that too.
