What Integrated Amp do You use

I use a Raven Blackhawk 3.1 as a daily driver.

Speakers are Ascend Acoustics Sierra Towers w/RAAL.

No complaints.

I had considered the Parasound and heard nothing but good things about it.  However, I’ve always been curious about McIntosh and so I went and listened to an MA8900 and was really, really impressed.  Paired with B&W 804 D3’s, it’s a level above what I had expected.  Both digital and vinyl sound great and I can listen for hours without wishing for more.  I know there are McIntosh hater’s out there, but if you listen and don’t read, you’ll understand why they are still around after all this time.  

My post will be for 'used' as I decided to return to separates.  Had my speakers and space been content with the Audio Research GSi75's power output, I would have likely kept that for many years.  It is a fabulous performer with a wonderful DAC and phonostage included.  I wasn't able to get the volume I wanted so as mentioned, back to separates.  

Before I settled on the separates I tried the ML 5805 and 585.5.  It was a very interesting trial.  The 5805 was first and the power really impressed compared to the GSi75.  It had a glitchy DAC and was only a trial so I returned.  I felt the 585.5 would be the ultimate.  I found a demo for a nice price and bought.  It had the same glitchy DAC that caused intermittent dropouts that drove me nuts.  Exact same problem as the 5805 and ML said they never heard of this.  The 585.5 also had a faulty phonostage that was going to require a service visit to change a cap so I returned it.  The increased power did not translate to much more in my system.  I was simply not impressed with these ML amps.  

I may try some of these recommended components in the future when I start changing things up again....I know it will happen! : )

Millercarbon -- what kind of tubes did you get ?

the EL-34 VTL amp is a real sweetheart;-)
