Hifi setup recommendation for a vinyl DJ?

I know I'm borderline off topic but since a lot of us have that similar living room DJ booth set up, I was wondering if someone could help me in finding the right Hifi set up.

The difficult part of the set up is that I would love to have a system that's both good at close range when I mix and good from a 5m distance when I'm just listening to a vinyl in my living room.

At the moment I've 2 active speakers around my booth (edifier s3000 pro) and I'm happy with them, they do the job quite well. But I'm far from the level of detail or quality that I would like to have.

I have a budget of around 3000 EUR in Belgium, anyone kind enough to recommend brands/speakers (active or passive) that would work well with this?

Thanks in advance!

Need help for a "hybrid" set up - DJ + Living room

I would like to build a new set up for my living room. It's quite difficult to find what I'm looking for so I hope some of you can relate.

I have a dj set-up in my living room: 2 turntables and a nice rotary mixer. I currently use Edifier s3000 pro on top of book shelves (at ear level when I mix) and I use these to listen to musing in my living room (35-40m²). I'm not super happy with them even though they get the job done but they are far from what I would like to have in terms of quality.

I have a budget of 3000 EUR, in Belgium, and I'm open to all suggestion.

The difficulty of the set up is that it has to sound good when I'm 1m away from them but also when I'm sitting 4m away from them. I mix different styles of electronic music but listen to different kind of music when I'm just sitting or inviting friends (Indie rock, classical, etc).

I've seen some recommendation for Buchardt speakers with the CXA81 Cambridge Audio amp: they apparently fill up a 40m² room quite well while sounding good when up close.

I also saw the new Cambridge audio L/R X active speakers generating quite some hype.

Do you have any recommendation? Thanks in advance!

De Cat: the most expensive U17 in the world - Where should he go?

On Transfermarkt, Nathan De Cat is officially the most expensive player on the market for players that are not 18 yet. We know that the chance of him leaving Anderlecht is high.

What would be the ideal destination for him? I'm not asking for transfer rumors, just the best club for his development AKA: how not to follow Musonda's carrier.

I've always felt that he was made for the Bundesliga even though I'm pretty sure he will end up (at some point) in the premier league big 5 if he continues his development.

EDIT: Yes, we all want him to stay at anderlecht. I'm asking "what if" he leaves in any case because they need money and can't handle the club as always.
