Agoners: Need Advice! Have 3K to spend on an Amp, what do I do with no way to audition?


Looking for a solid State Amp, something that will go for 30 years or more (My Last Amp), so I don't need high maintenance, with at least 200 WPC @ 8 ohm load.  SO many to choose from...I've narrowed my choices down to several brands, due to the consistency of great reviews; Krell, Pass Labs, Audio Research, McIntosh, Mark Levinson, Classe.  Now looking serious at a couple by Krell or Pass.  I love most types of music, classical, jazz, rock, punk, electronica, metal, but not Rap & Country.  I love great detail in my music, fast and bold but rich and  warm, played soft or loud with a big soundstage, love bass slam and crisp highs, too much midrange hurts my ears. Which amp does it all???  Wife has me limited to this, you know how that is :(...Please help me out here folks...I've been in this dilemma for a few years, it's time to make a decision and buy!

My first post, so be gentle.  I just ordered a Job Integrated (designed and manufactured by Goldmund), and it will power Vandersteen Treo CT's.  The amp includes a very good DAC, according to the Six moons review, and for $1700, should prove to be a bargain.  I'll post more after listening for awhile, but am very excited.  Front ended with Tidal/Roon and Sonore Microrendu (I just stream, but have some files on a usb drive as well).

Thought I'd throw out another recommendation for klaus at odyssey.. kismet reference in the cheaper khartago case stereo amp would be a safe choice and they are built to last, 20 year warranty.  sound is very refined and liquid/no fatigue
Most of you have been a great help, thank you especially to those who actually understood my needs, and offered solid advice. You now have me watching a few additional brands/models I was unaware of. This forum has been an overwhelming success for me. I'll see you all around Agon...thanks again!

You mentioned, "no audition" as a concern.  Both Odyssey and Sanders(Magtech) offer thirty day, no questions returns.  Klaus' amps are made right here in the Indiana and fit well within your budget.
Pass labs if you can find one that’s not over 5 yes old in your price range.

2nd would be Parasound Halo A21 - simply Superb! Got 3 of them!

3rd would be "ClassDAudio" SDS 470C - AMAZING SS + TUBE sound for $700 (1st if you consider the value) - it can drive anything well.  Use it the most.
