Jus ordered a jamo s803 passive speaker and I am looking for an amp to run it.
But this will be on a desktop and was hoping someone cud recommend me a compact size amp to run those speakers, budget around 400 dollar. thank you!

Onkyo a-9010 ? $435 on lazada.. Amp with wolfson 24/192 dac.


There's actually a newer a-9110(no dac) and a-9130(with dac) which have higher output . 50 watts vs 44 of the a-9010.. But not sure what the local price is



If you don't mind Class D, then SMSL amps are more compact and cheaper .. and have more power.

SMSL AD18
