I have a record player I'm currently using a jbl charge 3 as a speaker for, and I really want to upgrade my sound setup because my car is better than my house. The problem is I'm in about a 1200 sq ft house, and there's not a ton of room in any room. Any ideas on how to pimp out an audio setup without too much floor space?

2 questions, what's your budget, and do you want a separate amp?

I scored an Edifier pair of powered speakers (no amp needed) for 15 bucks at goodwill. You can find them on sale on Amazon for as low as $100-200 every now and then. I was pleasantly surprised at how full and clear the speakers are. Great for tight on space/budget.

Another great budget option with more bass are the THX Logitech computer speaker 2.1set w/ sub (another set not needing an amp). I have a set that's at least 20 years old and sound crazy good for sub $200 price point.

My other setup is a really nice Revel Concerta floor standing set with SVS sub, the complete opposite of budget and space saving. So I'll leave the midrange w/ amp options to someone else.
