Which integrated amp do you suggest?


Hi Everyone,
Looking to purchase an integrated amp to match my setup.
My sources include vinyl, CD's and Tidal Hi-Fi (not worried about master quality).
I have a set of Elac Debut 2.0 B6 speakers.

Looking for an amp which has a built-in DAC and the ability to network, or at least connect via laptop (for tidal streaming).

My budget is around 500-600 USD

Looking for an integrated amp which would pair nicely with the Elac's.

You won’t find a better integrated for $600 than a used Yamaha A-S801 or a new A-S501. They have a dead-quiet noise floor and their power exceeds published spec at well under 1% distortion for full bandwidth. They’re reliable and even 2 ohm stable. Bass extension and definition exceeds that of some ~$3K integrateds. Some competitors should be embarrassed really.
I think you’d be very happy with a Musical Fidelity M2si from Upscale Audio for $599. No DAC, but you could grab a Schiit Modi for another $99.
I have a fair amount of gear, SS, tube, separates, integrated and I keep coming back to my Peachtree Nova 220SE.  The DAC sounds great, it is compact and cool.  Underwood has some NOS at $1,000, but Peachtree has other models with less power that you could get used in your budget.  
Cambridge Audio CXA80. You can get one for $999 online. It is awesome and lots of power. I use a pair of Wharfedale Reva 3s with it. It has a built in DAC which I think is decent. Especially for TV use. I would get something like a Bluesound Node for streaming and DAC. You will need a separate phono stage, but you might already have that. 

The Cambridge can use a separate dongle you plug into the back that can do blue tooth. So easy streaming of Tidal from your phone, if that’s what you want to do. I have not tried that though.

Oh I forgot to mention that I tried an Outlaw receiver from Music Direct before getting the Cambridge CXA80. No comparison really. 

Sure it is a jack of all trades, but a master of none.
