Best Integrated for the Money

the mac integrateds have the juice and the flexibility to drive the 10t's in any room. very neutral ss, and they will let the aerial get the bass response they are capible of.

I've had several integrated amps over the years and currently like the Qinpu A-1.0x - their A-8000 is supposed to be even better sonically but does not have a remote volume. As far as American integrated amps go one of my favorites is the Rowland Concentra.

The Antique Sound Lab DT 1001 is a real bang for the buck. With nos tubes this amp is really quite something. Many are sold here on Agon for $600.00 or so.

I tried the Aerials with a number of amps. The result with a Symphonic Line Kraft-something (integrated) was very good -- excellent control of the spkr (I actually didn't much like the spkr until I tried that integrated).

Unfortunately, the Symphonic Line is expensive afaik (but maybe available used at 3k?)
