That’s super interesting @joey54 can you elaborate?
Best bang for buck integrated amp for $500
Looking for best bang for buck amp for under $ 500. I have triangle Bro 2 speakers already and cables and a dac. So just looking at a amp. Something in the 50-100 watt range, slightly on warm side of neutral, good low end, all the good stuff.
Right now i own the Emotiva basx A-100 its not bad i paid $199 but i want to step up my game. Im kinda looking at Cambridge audio AXR100, a couple of yamahas, but wide open to suggestions ?

Would highly recommend the Music Hall 15.3a. Here's a review of it: https://www.soundstagehifi.com/index.php/system-one/1530-high-value-surprise-the-music-hall-a15-3-in... It's a fantastic integrated - I had it in a simple system, but I tried it out in my main system. I was amazed by the sound quality - clear, fluid, with a touch of warmth. It's $549 new, so not much over your budget, and they do come up used, so keep an eye out. I liked it better than the Rega Brio. |
Okay because there's one on eBay the io for $450 and I spoke with the guy he owns a stereo store and he told me it's a decent amp it's not a kick-ass amp he says it's good but it's not great. Opinions are going to probably vary from shop to shop to me the io just seemed a little on the underpowered side. |
