I’m looking for an sleek integrated amp under $15k

I have owned my McIntosh MA12000 almost 2 yrs now (also have a Hegel in my den). Listen to and auditioned several others in the same price point. The MA12000 is my last - and will be passed on to my kids. It was a financial stretch for me personally, but after two yrs - the best audio purchase I have made. It does everything well, very well, some exceptionally. The tube preamp side I would offer as much more than exceptional as is the connectivity for anything and everything. Built like a tank, future proof DAC/card system...currently their 2nd gen DAC. Some of the newer MC products I have listened to = more decorative than functional...but the MA12000 will be an iconic hallmark, one that Mc Labs has ever made.  Audio Excellence Canada has an in-depth review on U-tube

Ayre. Owned a lot of stuff, this did it for me.

supposedly the technics r1000 is fantastic.

Aavik all day, every day but that U-300 listed is at least 5k overpriced and 3 generations old. I owned the 300 and loved it, sold me on Aavik, but 15k is about what I paid 6yrs ago. Apologies to the seller if reading this. 

Thanks everyone ! There’s a lot to digest here. I really want the video monitor so leaning towards those models. The unit will be driving a whole home audio system so there isn’t a real need for audio quality. Although I may connect my high end turntable /phono/speakers to it as well.so that may change the decision process.
