What do you think is the best integrated amplifier under 1000


How's it going?! I'm in search for a integrated that can produce the best sound for the 1000 under bracket. I know it's not a lot of money for an amp, but I still think there's some great amps on the used market for that price. Or if anyone would know a great chi-fi amp for the price it would be all so helpful. I have wharfedale 9.1 bookself speakers and will be mainly using the speakers for hip hop music. My room size is very small like 9 feet by 10 feet for a computer set up. I have it running my speakers into a Emotiva basx a100 in a Arcam rdac to computer. It's just for near filed desktop use.  The speakers have a  sensitivity of 86db so looking for something powerful enough. Here are the rest of the specs:  Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 loudspeaker Specifications | Stereophile.com

Any other info you need just let me know. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Peace.

For that price range, I would keep my eyes peeled for  Vincent MK-236. If a bit higher, the 237. I've not tried them, but the hybrid tube/ss design and the aesthetics. @mesch has said wonderful things about them, and he knows his amps. https://www.hifishark.com/search?q=vincent+integrated+sv-236
Research the NAD 3020 V2 and the Sprout100 (PS Audio).

Think the NAD is around $400 and the PS went up to $700 (last I looked).

You would need to to disable/turn off the bass boost feature on the Sprout with your mentioned speakers.

Listened to the NAD in a desktop setup, but only going by online reviews for the latest 100 Sprout.

Not really into DAC's and computers for audio, but you can read about the DAC's/features contained in both amps and decide if they might benefit/replace what you currently use.

I also HIGHLY recommend Shugar Soapworks Oatmeal & Lemon Verbena Bar Soap, and I never leave home without it.
