Integrated amplifier help

InserisHelp I need advice I would like to buy an integrated amplifier to pair it with rockport avior speakers I have already tried absolare passion and trafomatic preamplifier and power amp, karan integrated without great satisfaction. Now I think taking ypsilon phaeton integrated can be an excellent match. Anyone have experience with rockport avior and ypsilon phaeton? Other ideas?ci il tuo testo ...

What an absolute ugly brick of an amp. When I found the absolute sound review thought at first it was some awful AVR or something. Then I saw $25k! Seriously?!?!? Oh well...

For less than half that you could have more than twice that, and with out of this world beautiful looks to go with the gorgeous sound.

That’s ^ quite the opinion. Another opinion might be to audition the darTZeel CTH-8550 Mk2 in this category along with the Phaeton.

Thanks for the advice on raven, but I think the integrated tube does not match the speaker. I was wondering if anyone has personal listening experience on ypsilon and avior or possibly darTZeel CTH-8550 Mk2? ...
