Integrated for TAD ME1: Luxman, Accuphase or Soulnote?

Battle of Japanese brands!

Which one should fit better for the marvellous TAD?

Sources: Turntable and Streamer/DAC.

Been thinking in Soulnote A-2, Luxman 590ax II or Accuphase E-480/4000.

Budget around 7-8K€.

Thanks!

Hegel h590 has impressive control but doesn't add any warmth. Gryphon Diablo would be really cool.

If you're looking for something out of the ordinary go hear an Audia Flight, FLS 10. It might very well be what you're looking for. Just my opinion.
