I am running the m33 with revel f228. Running cardas golden cross speaker cables and Puritan power. Sound is awesome.
Integrated Amp Choices
From numerous visits to audio stores in the BIG city 2 hours south of my place, and after listening to a couple of dozen speakers (up to $18,000) both passive and active. Our simple ears have narrowed it down to these 2 speakers (so far):
KEF R11s - https://us.kef.com/r11.html and Triangle AustraleEZs - https://www.trianglehifi.com/en/produit/hifi-floor-standing-speaker-ez-australe/ These 2 sound the best to both my wife, offer good value and both very close to each other in price.
Here are a few integrated amps (in around the $5K range) that I am considering and I was hoping the community can give their votes to which would compliment the speakers of choice (so far) the best?

Onboard DAC is a big consideration too, so hoping for your further comments on DAC sections as well.
Prefer new or demo over used.
Thanks,

ljutic - sounds sweet! I finally bit the bullet and went with yysantabarbara's Krell K300i. Thanks too all that contributed here and made recommendations. It was a lot of fun learning about so many integrated amps and getting to know a bit about all your systems and what works good for you! |
