set up is almost only for DJ use
I assume you mean DJ LARPing rather than actually playing out?
There are a million ways to build a system which can switch easily between three inputs, but the easiest and cheapest is just a replacement integrated amp to go with your existing passive speakers. Find one with a pre-out if you think you're going to swap to active speakers later.

My amp (Technics SU-VZ220) has always been a bit unreliable. Latest issue is channels randomly dropping, only restoring themselves with a firm thump.
What I originally jumped on it for was the ability to run and independently control two pairs of speakers, and I have a set of Eltax floorstanders and Gale Silver bookshelfs.
I’ve noticed I never turn the floorstanders on and am going to get rid of them to save space.
If I am to get a new amp, I might as well consider some new speakers too, if I’ll notice any benefit over the current Gales.
The set up is almost only for DJ use, so I’d thought about some active speakers like the Yamaha HS5, but I need three inputs - DJ mixer, PC and CD deck.
It is in a small room (2.3m x 2.8m) with lots of stuff in it.
Any advice on what I might look at and how I might configure it would be welcomed.
