tube pre & ss amp integrated

Been tooling around youtube , I know but what else is there now ? Very cautious !

Wife has fallen for Mcintosh MA352 . I must have tubes some place in there , she likes ss, seems to be the best of both worlds for us .

I am wondering what would compete with mac soundwise?

Will be using Klipsch Forte 4's with it .

Thank you and be safe.

Plan is to add a tube front end to it in the same chassis. Like the idea of a really good one box solution, and have been wanting to have a hybrid integrated. The Croft Phono Integrated has been on my wishlist for a while. Simple little one box solution.

The hybrid works for me, Unison Research do some nice ones, better than Mac's, IMO.

First Watt SIT - 3, or the Pass XA-25. My favorite is the SIT-3. I understand the F-8 is very good also, but don’t own one.
