I’m in trouble

I just sold my classD power amp that produced 140 and 300 watts at 8 and 4 ohms, respectively.
I have speakers that are :
4 ohms producing 92dBSPL and 6 ohms producing 87dBSPLBat 2.83 v input!

I listen at low levels in a 12’x14’ cave to jazz and chamber music

No tube gear ; I live in So Florida!
integrated amp would be great!

Prime use- mask my tinnitus!

I hope you did not accept much cash for two malperforming pieces. I bought the SGCD for $1100 new and traded it in for <$800.
Never ANY problems, not even a reboot. 
Built my own trigger to the amp since the new pre doesn't have one - no off switchIf you liked the S300 ,just get a VTV amp.
He'll build whatever you want, 30 day trial.

A Pass or Parasound integrated should do the trick for many years of listening pleasure.

I also bought the Class D GaN amp, and think it sounds fantastic. Problem is, I've gone through two amps, they both  lasted only a week. They just quit, and won't power up. I'm expecting a third amp, most likely today. Reportedly some poorly made parts in the power supply..

Tom has been great to deal with so far.

I'll report how the third amp performs.

The best integrated amp that I have heard recently is the Mark Levinson.  It is a new design that ML hired to make the new amp.  Pretty nice for SS and I am a tube guy.  No it does not sound like tubes!  But pretty natural nun-the-less.  Find a b class for under $6K - or let me know and I will but you in touch with a dealer.

Happy Listening.
