Best integrated amps


Hi, for a budget of 300$ what integrated amp should I choose? I have currently a nad 3020, is it worth doing the change?

That is a pretty small budget. NADs typically sound pretty good for the money. I think that is the model I had… gave to a friend. He is using it.

 

I would save up a thousand… then start looking.

@thecarpathian, it is part of the young audiophile’s upgrade path...a sad, impatient, confused one, especially when on a budget ( but I speak for many of us ). I responded to his other, duplicate thread. A complete rebuild would be more than his budget, but is an amazing thing ( new chassis, new connectors, new attenuators for volume and tone, and a few more goodies ( all this from AliExpress )
