Best sounding integrated made........is?

I've owned a few of the well thought of, but have not heard the new Ayre, or the Burmester,...or many, many others.

So,...what in your listening experience is the very best sounding integrated amplifier?

Higher power/current amps from one point of view can drive any speakers but on the other point of view might make them to edgy and unmusical. The mentioned Plinius 8200 is probably the most versatile integrated amp that mate any speaker worm and musical.

I have no regrets. Few solid states pieces will do what the Rowland does. Listen to it before you buy anything. The match with your speakers is most important. Jallen
