If you don't mind used a Naim Nait5i sounds great (owned one and miss it). Rega Elex R used can be found for around 1k +/-. Wonderful amp. You have some nice recommendations above as well.
I have an Anthem 225 integrated and am very happy with it. Phono is built in - no DAC. Plenty of power and control over any speakers I own/ have tried.
In my second post above I inserted 'new' instead of 'used'. New the Vincent originally retailed for $1500, The Pathos at about $2400. Sorry for the confusion.
What speakers do you intend to drive with purchased integrated? What is size of listening room?
