    Hi, and welcome to the forum! Others here are a lot better at suggesting gear than I am, and hopefully some of them will chime in. My suggestion - bump your thread every now and again if you don't hear back, but realize that you might not get many (or any) responses today. It's a Sunday, plus it's Mothers Day, so a lot of people might not be on the forum much today.

    i saved up some money - 500 euros

    It's hard to know what brands you have over there and how any
    model numbers would be different from what we have here.

    With only 500 to work with I would be looking at used equipment.

    It would also help if you ask in the appropriate forum This particular forum is for things that are not necessarily audio related. The beginners or general forum here might get you more responses.

    How would we know what YOU have over THERE, much less what YOU'VE got available in YOUR used market?

    How about you tell us what you're looking at? We'll let you know if we can help then.
