i'm prolly gonna get this amp with a denon tu1800dab tuner and i'd like to know which bookshelf speakers would go well with it please? i've heard the Q-Acoustics 1010s and they sounded great but is there anything better in a similar price range of £100-150 i should get instead? cheers

I have the same amp, paired with a set of Wharfedale diamond 9.1's which are great in my opinion and highly rated.

I have this amp too and am using the Tannoy Mercury M3 cherry speakers, bought for £100 second hand and am quite pleased with them!

like the look of the Mourdaunt Short 902i but it looks like they're bi-wire at the back and the amp is'nt bi-wire i think, how would i connect those to the amp?

they should come with a small metal plate or something along those lines to connect each pair of terminals at the back of the speakers so it acts like its single wired

Or you can DIY a bridge with some quality copper/cable

well the MS902 look way too big but the MS302 look a similar size QA1010's would the MS302 be as good as the QA1010s?

Just a bit off topic sorry but did you also remove the plastic PRE- bridges and replace them with some quality phono leads instead? I heard it makes a difference to bass and detail but am still waiting for my cables to arrive!
