Rogue pharaoh II or Cronus Magnum III ?

@lradder completely agree. I have the Pharaoh II as well as a number of other integrated amps. It is a very nice integrated and it comes in second to my AH Qualiton X200  that is also double the price and then some. Find the mids are better with the X200. 

@lradder ,

Will you elaborate as to your opinion to avoid ribbon tweeters with the Pharaoh 2?

This is a Solid State, Class D Amp at 250 watts - 8 ohms / 400 watts - 4 ohms. it produces strong highs. I should have stated if you like bright highs, matching the Pharaoh 2 with ribbon tweeters will be bright. Just be careful if you are sensitive to brightness.

Yes, but a tube preamp section.

Wouldn't that alleviate that brightness?

To a large part, yes. However there are many articles you can google to see how power tubes and Solid State Amps control the "tone" of an amp's output.
