sweetest sounding ss integrated

Despite my efforts to talk him out of it, a friend of mine is downsizing and simplifying, getting out of tubed separates, and is looking for a ss, or possibly hybrid, integrated that leans towards the euphonic.

Price range: $1500 to $3500 new or used.

Other components: Cambridge 840C, B&W 703s.

Musical preferences: classical, particularly large scale.

Recommendations?

Ayre AX-7e at 60wpc should be enough.
Sweet\warm sound but dynamic and very involving.
It can control the drivers like a champ.
SS is not my cup of tea but I really like this component.
RWA int. is also very good but component matching is very importent and its 30wpc might not be up to the task.
