good integrated amps that don't include a phono section or a DAC

I don't need either because I have an outboard DAC and I'm not into vinyl. any suggestions? price would be no more than a grand. thanks!

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?

Classic versions, Prologue, Dialogue, roll tubes to fine tune sound. Plus tubes sound great with digital (and of course any other sources). New or used. Simplicity, what is needed - nothing more.
