Obviously not Lou, but I have a pair of passive 2 way bookshelf speakers and the SVS Micro 3000 in my office, and find it to be a very nice combination. I also have a Schiit Lokius in the chain, although I’m using a restored vintage integrated amp. I can attest that this can be an exceedingly clean sounding system, even if wireless is used. I try to keep the office looking very clean, so I’m using the SVS Soundpath device to send signal from the DAC input to the sub. I also am using iFi Zen Air Blue and streaming from an M1 iPad Pro using BT5.1
Originally I was thinking of Magnepan 1.7i speakers but Covid supply chain issues made them hard to find. After auditioning a number of bookshelf speakers including Focal and Harbeth, I settled on the EgglestonWorks Nico Evo, and I’m very happy with them. Imaging is excellent. I have the speakers on the stands that come with them, not putting them on a desk.
