I have the Technics SU-G700mk2. It replaces and betters the vintage BAT VK-3ixSE pre with AR-V35 tube amp. It does exact what you are requesting. I do run this amp on my Forte III’s. I have not tried it on my Thiel CS2.4’s yet. The sound is powerful, live, clear (I mean CLEAR) smooth and effortless.
Recommend a non-polite sounding amp / integrated
Looking for a a non-polite sounding amp / integrated. By polite I mean Denon, Musical Fidelity, Arcam. I had Rotel and Adcom and they were harsh. I was thinking about Pass (maybe is just very detailed) or a chip amp. Probably not digital or tube amp.
Integrated is okay as long as it does not have digital volume.
Price under 3K and driving a variety of easy to drive single driver speakers at 70-75dB in a small room.

I would like to through the Topping in the mix but all I see on Amazon is 240 volt or 48 volt. Nothing at 120 volt. Topping PA3S Power Amplifier MA120702 x 2 Class D Fully Balanced Single Ended AMP 80W x 2 |
For a non-polite amp that plays music (i.e. reproduces all the frequencies) I suggest you go for the Odyssey Khartago or Stratos recommended by @kennyc above. |
@fstein i googled what you threw out and i came up with nothing. what brands/models are you referring to ? |
