The only one I have heard at that price point is the AMC CVT-3050 which list for $1000. I've it for $700 at places like Northampton Audio. Decent for $700, at $1000 the others are better. But if you keep it for a number of years and need new tubes it is a pain. They come soldered to a board that plugs into the unit, so you either have to buy replacements from a dealer, the manufacturer or bring it to a tech.
integrated amp advice needed
i have about $1000 dollars to spend on a front end for my alon 1's. i assume an integrated is the way to go on this. i prefer the sound of tubes, and they generally do better with these speakes as they can be bright with solid state. i know there are a few choices out there, jolida, antique sound lab , anyone have good or bad experiences with these ? especially concerning quality and reliabilty, thanks
