Advice for new Integrated amp please.

A tube hybrid intrigues me. Best of both worlds perhaps.

Tube hybrid could be interesting. Rogue seems big into that these days as well. Have not heard, but would expect very good results in general. I do run separate ARC tube pre-amp + Bel Canto Class D amp. BEst of both worlds indeed in many cases. Very liquid neutral (not warm) midrange, but can still be a touch warm sounding with some speakers that normally tend to lean that way, like Dynaudio.

The Rougue Sphinx is class D + tube pre. The tweeter in the Triton 7's is a version of the old Heil Air Motion tweeter. Or a mini-ribbon I guess. I would think a tube pre section would mate very well with that. I get the sense my Emotiva separates can be a tad bright(transistory?) with it.

I've heard the GE Tritons and Aons. Tritons were not set up well so I did not get a good sense of their potential. Aons were and there was a lot to like. THe folded ribbon delivered what I would describe as a more "polite" top end than other speakers I heard in comparison, less tending towards bright or edgy than the others. Good CLass D + tube pre is best of both worlds as often described. A good match on paper for use with GEs in general, I would think. Rogue SPhinx has goten some good reviews and Rogue in general tends to offer very high quality sound and good value with its products.

Thank you. What I like about the Rogue (besides the reviews) is that they are made right in PA (i"m from upstate, NY) and that appeals to me. I've owned McIntosh for the same reason. I'd like to simplify from the Emotiva mono-blocks and pre-amp (3 pieces plus cables, power cords etc.) but do not want to lose sound quality. Seems to be some nice integrateds on A'Gon right now...
