What is the best tube integrated amp with remote


There's only a few to choose from: Rogue Audio Tempest, Audio Research CA-50 (no longer available, new Manley integrated, Cary Audio SLI-80, Consonance M100SE.

Anthem makes a nice integrated with a tubed pre amp section. It might not be as nice as the Rouge or the Audio Research, but I've been happy with it. The only downfall (it may be a big one) is that the remote only allows control of the volume in VERY large steps. If anthem would replace it with a better volume pot, I would have no complaints. Happy listening.
How about the VAC Avatar? that's got a remote. Have to admit that I'm a big fan of Rogue, but have no experience with the Tempest.
Bob, definitely buy the Rogue Magnum Tempest on this site if it's still available. I bought it and I replaced the 12AX7 and 12AU7 to Mullard and Phillip NOS tubes respectfully. I am driving pseudo efficient speakers (88db, 4ohm/8ohm). My bass module is 4 ohm and my mid/tweeter is 8ohm with a jumper cable between the two. I have the Rogue on the 8ohm tap and it sounds great. Especially after putting those NOS tubes in there.


JJ electronics 828, 8 KT88's, Slick Remote , 5 RCA inputs, 4 & 8 Ohm outputs, 80 lbs., Stunning Red Maple Face with Gold accents.This is the company that makes the JJ Tubes and caps,(formerly Tesla). I bought the C.E.S. Demo and 3 of my friends have since ordered one.

Thanks

Unison Research the Absolete amp(if budget allowes)
Pathos Twin Towers is a little more expencive than you've just mentioned but one of the best integrated amps.
