NAD C 375BEE Integrated Amp Replacement Recommendations


I use the NAD C375BEE integrated with Klipsch RF-7 II speakers. Do you have any experience, or can you recommend an integrated with the grunt (bass weight) and smooth sound of the NAD C 375BE, but more refinement?   Looking not to spend more than about $2500.

Musical Fidelity M5si?
Luxman 505ux?
Musical Fidelity A5?
What have you heard; What's your take? Thanks

Anthem I225 Integrated amp. 225 watts into 8 ohms/310 into 4 ohms. Very good low end torque! Onboard phone section. Remote, Clean, One XLR input. Contact me if your interested.

Nutty, thanks for your suggestion.  I have owned so many integrateds in the past years it's hard to keep track but have not owned the 225. Have considered it.  I have owned the NAD M2, NAD M3, Harmon Karkdon HK990, Yamaha AS2000, and the NAD C375BEE, granted, with different speakers. The Yamaha was more refined.  A member here who I respect, owned the Anthem and sold it to get the Yamaha AS 2000.   I have also owned the Blue Circle BMPH which I sorely regret selling and was probably my only high end integrated;, also the McIntosh MA6900 that I wish I never bought. 
Sorry for the Outlaw recommendation, that post was intended elsewhere. For this thread I would +1 mesch for the Vincent. Sorry for the confusion and my ineptitude.

If buying new at that price I would certainly look at the recommended Vincent. I have had the 236mk and the 237. Fantastic amps.
The OP mentioned his speakers the Klipsch RF-7 II.  Does anyone realize that the sensitivity spec is 101db?!

nobody needs 150 wpc to drive these speakers and I doubt the OP is using more than 20-30 watts from the Nad unless he’s already deaf.

I had the 375, and though it’s a decent amp, it’s not the most transparent.   The pre section holds it back, imho.  The perfect pre for those speakers is the Schiit Saga, a passive pre that has amazing detail and imaging.   Add their 100 wpc amp and you’ve dropped only 1100 or so with shipping.   The Nad will sound flat by comparison.  

Plus the gear gear is made in the USA like those Klipsch speakers.
