Well recently I just bought my first system. It consists of the latest Olive Opus 4,
Bel Canto DAC3 and ATC Active 20s with PsAudio's Power plant premier. So you can tell that I've spent like almost 60-70% of my budget on my speakers but then again they are active so I ended up saving quite a bit. My original choices was an Icepower amps from Acoustic Reality and Wilson Benesch's trinity or Discovery. Buying active speakers saved me a sizeable chunk of money so maybe you should go active too with that budget. Consider getting a class leading DAC like Benchmark's or BelCanto's and pair it with a basic transport, and maybe active loudspeakers from AVI, ATC or Dynaudio and you will have a great value for money simple set up.
