Try the Unison Research Unico. I was impressed with its sound and general quality for the price of $1400 - you might be too. Good luck! Arthur
I finally heard the Unison Research Unico at this past CES and it sounded very nice matched with Triangle Zays[?] speakers. The combo was very lively but a bit thin, but that have been due more to the Triangles than the Unico. You might also consider the Rogue Magnum Tempest.
Blue Circle BC29 hybrid integrated is 90 watts a channel.
6922 tube preamp stage, with solid state power amp stage.

Unfortunitely a new one may blow your budget.
