Where to buy a Roksan Kandy Integrated in the US?

Hi-

Am new to the forum, and just learning about the world of the audiophile. I am interested in purchasing a Roksan Kandy amp, but don't want to spend more than $1000. Obviously, this makes a second hand amp the most reasonable choice. I have been checking this forum's classifieds and e-Bay for the last few days but have not seen anything yet.

Question: How would you recommend I go about finding this amp?

I live in the Washington DC area, and haven't had any luck with local dealers, yet...

Would like to pair it with B&W probably the 6-series bookshelf (685, I think), and either a Roksan CD player or a Rega player.

Question: Does this sound like a good set up? Are there other comparable combinations that you might recommend?

I listen to a massive range of music: classical, jazz, big band, rock, down-tempo electronic.

Thanks everyone! Great Forum!

I owned the Kandy Mk III integrated a few years ago. It is a decent amp for the money. I believe I sold mine for around $550. Keep your eyes on the classifieds or you could place a want to buy ad.
Curious what made you decide on this model?

Honestly- I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet, but from everything I have read, seems to be a good starting point. Have researched NAIM, NAD, Cambridge Audio, and am trying to get read up on tubes too.

Any recommendations for alternatives for a sub-$1000 amp, used or new?
