Recommendations for modern integrated with tone & balance controls other than Mcintosh


The "purist" approach is no longer viable for me due to recent hearing loss, and I'd also like to simplify my tube separates which consist of preamp, power supply, and pair of mono amps.
 Budget up to 10K. But, of course,  I also could just go with a Schiit Loki for $149 bux and keep feeding my tube gear. :) Thanks in advance for any suggestions.


ps

Tone and balance control is very 20th century.

Automated Digital room correction is the right tool to apply when a room just can’t cut it otherwise these days which is often true in more cases than not. Check out the new NAD 3050 for example.

In my large collection of vinyl there are many recordings that sound fine. There are many that do not.  Likewise with my CDs and the music I stream.  Hence my fondness for tone and other controls as well as an ongoing preference for tubes at least somewhere in my system.

 

I purchase a schitt LOki Max and I will tell you it works MUCH better than the tone controls on my Mac and Accuphase. I was a purist too, but the Max changed that. Instead of changing the sound it seems to change the characteristic of the speakers. The adjust are very subtle.The fact that is has a remote and presets don’t hurt either.
