This is my first time posting, and I am in a bit of a quandary. I recently purchased my first desktop speaker setup, the Kanto Ora and the Kanto Sub 8. While I am mostly enjoying the sound quality, I am a bit concerned that at a total price of over $600 dollars I am missing out on a setup that could be much superior at similar cost. For instance, I am eying the RSL iA255.1 amp, which would provide a similar high pass filter as the Kanto setup. Combining this with a subwoofer like the new RSL Speedwoofer 10e (on paper a much better subwoofer), would leave me with about $200 dollars for passive speakers. In anyones experience, is there a desktop setup around $600 dollars that would be objectively superior to the Kanto setup that I am currently using? My source is a 2022 MacBook Air running Apple Music, with Lossless Switcher and SoundSource. It should be noted that the Kanto internal DAC boasts an unimpressive 16bit resolution while the MacBooks internal DAC is capable of outputting 24bit through the headphone jack. While the Kanto does sound great, I am more interested in separates and passive speakers at this point as I would like to integrate headphones into my listening down the road. So ideally, external DAC and headphone/preamp (integrated or separate), and an external power amp for the speakers. I can stretch my budget to about 1k. Any recommendation and/or wisdom for this HiFi newby is much appreciated. This is for music listening only, so not concerned with mixing or anything like that. Open to every and all suggestions! Thank You!
