Yes, +1, +1, +1 for Ayre. Anybody who is considering a Hegel H590 or H600 must at least give a listen to the Ayre EX-8 V2.
recommend PRAT Integrated amplifiers (not Naim)
what are some modern integrated amps in the 5-10k range that offer a heavy dose of PRAT
not seeking anything Naim
for some frame of reference, was recently recommended Rega Aethos and Hegel H590...neither had the PRAT of my NAD C298 power amp (which is not an ntegrated and had some harshness to it)
please and thanks
Is the Yamaha A-S3200 or Bryston B135 known for PRAT? Simaudio maybe?
