Looking to buy some speakers for my Hi-Fi

I've been using my headphones with my amp for a while and want to finally get some speakers.

My amp is the Denon PMA-860(80w 8Ω) and I'm using it with a Topping D10S Mini connected to my PC and a WEGA JPS-350P record player. (Planning to add a Denon DRM - 800 sometime later)

I'm living in a one room dorm right now and don't really have the room for floor speakers, but I do have room for something bigger than bookshelf speakers.

Preferably I'd buy something vintage, but newer stuff is also fine. My budget is quite small, around 100€ ±25€ (I'm from the EU)

Look around your local area and see what options you have. There are plenty of smaller speakers today that sound amazing.

The problem is that all local listings have ridiculous prices, usually even higher than ebay prices. People try to sell Radiotehnika speakers for 50€ here
 
Also, to help us make speaker recommendations, it may be helpful if you can tell us what kind of headphones you find to sound good. And which did not sound good to you.

You need something brutal, speakers that kill. Anything Cerwin Vega, or PA speakers. Too bad your room is smaller. I get it though, my living room is small too. You want a pair of speakers you can jack the volume and give no concern on whether you’re going to hurt anything but your hearing. Don’t forget to invite 80 of your closest friends, it’s more fun that way.

Hard to answer, I only own two pairs of Sennheisers HD 58X's and Sennheiser Momentum free earbuds and to be honest I prefer the earbuds, open backed headphones aren't really my thing it seems.

That...
Would probably get me evicted from my dorm. I would also like to keep my eardrums in tact. The cleaner the sound the better.

With punk? I’ve got a very nice system, punk gets lost pretty quickly.
