decent integrated to replace NAD 3400


I need to replace my integrated in my second system - which I now have in Houston (Katrina New Orleans transplant)My main system is back home waiting my return in late May

My main system is Audio Research LS5 and D200

Any recommendations on a reasonably priced (800-1300)integrated (or separates) for a second system. I don't want to rob the bank as I have a lot of repairs to do once I get home.

The integrated would interface with an audio aero prima and B&W Matrix 2's.

I've heard good things about Creek and Plinius

would prefer something warm and resolving

Jungson JA 88C (no phono stage though). $400 with remote so you'll save lots of money for those repairs. On the warmer side of neutral and very resolving, built to very, very high standards. Mine replaced an Audiolab 8000A and is in an entirely different league. Can recall reading somewhere on Audioasylum (I think, or possibly here) that one user thought that, although the Plinius (can't remember the model #, think it might have been the 9100 or 9200?) at mucho dinero more did one or two things better, he overall preferred the Jungson.

A little less money than your budget but I can highly recommend the Audio Refinement Complete. Warm, resolving, very nicely built and a real bargain.
Check out the YBA Integra DT version. IMHO. Great sounding unit. Very reliable.
