Best Integrated for the Money

If you are only needing it for a few months then a Mcintosh MA6500 or MA6900 would have a fast re-sell.

Manley Stingray will do the job for you. It will power the Aerial's and some hard to drive speakers to satisfying levels and do it with class. Those who have owned it will attest to its prowess. Lush mids, punchy tight bass.Its 50W El84 power output is optimized for 5 ohm impedence. Tubes are plentiful and inexpensive as well as good sounding. You really cant lose here at its price...Best to you!//Ken

For $1,500 new I would definately look at the antique sound lab AQ1001DT (new version) then add NOS input tubes (the power tubes are pretty good).

Jadis Orchestra Reference, used if you can find one, IMHO.
