I have a pair of powered Klipsch bookshelf speakers, and while I don’t have any complaints about them, I’m thinking about getting an amplifier and switching to passive speakers, just for a more “purely analog” setup. The speakers I have right now have modern features like a remote and bluetooth, and I don’t think I’ll miss the remote and I never use bluetooth.

What do you use? I’m not an audiophile by any means, so I’ll probably see what affordable, used amp and speakers I can find at a record store or thrift shop, but I’d love to hear your recommendations, too.
