Budget amp bundled with budget speakers, both models have positive reviews. The price is pretty good considering the amp alone costs $750-999 from other retailers, and the speakers are around $300-350 when sold separately. The amp has bluetooth, 2 optical inputs, 1 coax, phono, 4x line-in and sub pre-out. No stock in stores near me, but AusPost shipping was quite cheap at $12.
Pick up a Fosi Audio BT20A or Aiyima A07 Pro and a set of Pioneer SP-BS22-LR Andrew Jones, whilst missing input switching, how many connections do you need for stereo listening?
+1 for the BT20A Pro. I bought a BT20A Pro around 6 months ago to replace a failing 90s Marantz in a spare room and have been incredibly impressed with it. The tone controls work really well to dial in the speakers for the room and match them to the amp. Pair it with an SMSL SU1 DAC which becomes less than $250 total (depending on sales) and you've got an excellent starting point that most audiophiles would be happy with if they were blind-tested.

Where exactly? When I read the reviews from American users, they often mention that purchased a pair of these speakers on Amazon US for under 100 USD. I can't find them anywhere in Australia except ebay where they are priced 478 AUD + 80 AUD delivery. Where's the bargain?
Fosi Audio or Aiyima
No thanks.
Oh, really? The deals from 2014, 2018, 2019, and the latest from 2021. Do you mean I should have bought it then and don't wait until 2024?
That amp has Bluetooth and is rated at 70 Watts (4ohm, 1kHz, THD: 0.7%) fwiw
