KUPID

TL;DR: I would recommend purchasing the WiiM Ultra Amp and the Ascilab C6B, and upgrading to an ELAC RS700 when you have the funds available. First of all, it's a good idea to ask yourself in advance where you want to end up. To do this, it's a good idea to listen to lots of speakers—including ones

I have two pairs of Dali speakers: Spektor 2 and Oberon 3. I'm happy with both. In a bigger room, the Oberon do "fill" the room better, probably because of their bigger size/bigger woofer and naturally more powerful bass. Thought the Oberon would kill your budget, so Spektor 2 could be a great entry

You need a subwoofer for TV/movie content almost by definition, but you'd need one for music, too, because the Dali Kupids can't effectively reproduce the bottom two octaves.

Well, the Diamonds 12.1 are not universally acclaimed speakers. Some praise them, some not really... I'd rather get Q3030i or Dali Spector 2. Monitor Audio Bronze 50 (6G) or Dali Kupid are just below the 300GBP mark too...
