new stereo setup

[conqueror]

which would be a better setup out of the following 3? source will exclusively be a macbook as i've gotten rid of my turntable:

 

swan m50w

or

pioneer sp-bs22 with a topping or smsl t-amp

or

jbl lsr305

 

my biggest issue with the latter is actually the size and the fact that i'd need two power outlets.

i'm aware of his 'reputation', but i'm a complete novice to this stuff.

if you're heavy into producing or mixing then jb is solid. pioneers for mostly listening

i have an audioengine A2+ bc im too lazy to set up amps and etc. 

 

i've gotten more use of my sonos than the A2s though

i ended up ordering presonus eris 4.5s, but won't receive them 'til mid-august (out of stock). they're half the price of jbls, and seem to have decent enough reviews. i was originally leaning towards the pioneers, but the australian distributor aren't getting more until the end of year.
