Best Integrated, period.

I have a new yamaha a-s2000 and I think this amp is one of the BEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK integrated amp on the market right now ! It sounds like a good Class A amp..like the Luxman L590A MK2 or Accuphase! The Law Of Diminishing Returns kick in fast with a product like the Yamaha a-s2000 and the improves you get with a top of the line Luxman or Accuphase is very very SMALL !... The Yamaha a-s2000 is a Classic that we will talk about for a long time !..

the original jadis orchestra is my favorite integrated amp.

Thanks for your astute observations Sumitko!

It's also interesting that Brianmgrarcom has owned 2-No.383's, yet opines..."not the best nor close." Apart from having 2 eyes, 2 ears, 2 nads (not those NAD's) etc. etc., I've never owned 2 of anything. I have NOT (of course) heard them all...who has?

As I strap on another 'Depends' (eeewww), I CAN say...I've heard a few!

Not sure of your point rogalog.

Not knowing the circumstances that led to your acquiring 2-Levinson integrateds (of course), I was only questioning why anyone would buy 2 of anything...assuming (that is) the second amp sounded much the same as the first???

My apologies if it came across as something more!
