Chinese integrated for around $1k


Hi guys,
I am looking for a powerful integrated amp around $1k.
Since my speakers are Chinese (Aurum Cantus Volla) I started looking into some Chinese amplification options, hoping they might surprise me the way the speakers did.
I have narrowed down the search to 2 options:

1. Dussun V6i
2. Shengya A-206mk

Both are quite powerful, both can be used as pure power amps for future tube pre-amp options, and both got decent to raving reviews over the net (for what it's worth).
Since there's no authorized dealer around me, this is going to be a blind purchase.

The Shengya is more expensive by ~$500, but is quite a looker to my taste (it just looks more robust).
So, has anyone had an experience with these amps an can shed some unsolicited light for me?

Thanks

WOW, Those are nice system. Since your speaker are rated 50-200 watt. You be better off purchase Shengya A-206mk with 200 watt @ 8 ohm. Audio technology is very simple. You just have to match (or more) of the power handling capacity. You will enjoy the sound of music for life.
Maybe consider the Dussun V8i, I've had a few of them through here over the years, sounds decent, and are very well made.

Good Listening

If I were forced to choose, I would get the Dussun V6i. My primary reason would be the 150 watt at 8 ohm / 300 watt at 4 ohm rating. If the specs are accurate this is a high current amplifier. That is the same power rating as the Krell S-300i. Don't worry about having too much power as that isn't the issue to be concerned with. The pseudo class A claim seems a bit fishy however. It either is or is not.

I have a Yaqin MC-30L tube amplifier that I am extremely happy with.
