Integrated Amp - Looking to replace my amp & pre

I have used a few of those listed above, the Lavardin IT, Karan K180 and my 4 year main amp, the Viva Solista. The latter is by a long way the best amp I have used, better than any separates. Of course it is only 22watts, but it drives my 89db speakers perfectly, mind you, they have a high impedence

Stanwal suggest the ASR Emitter,its the Exclusive B version you have to check out.
However the B would be at the top end of your budget "used".
It is solid state that doe's not sound like solid state.

The B version has many audio attributes.
DartZeel and ASR seem to be the only manufactures so far that have found solutions that are unique and evolutionary utilizing battery power for their preamp and phono stage.

Like any quality type and brand of amplification , as MOST of you know, mate it well with your speakers and you will be rewarded.

David12 recently I had the pleasure to hear a system based around the Viva Solista, very musical! with impressive looks...

plinius 9200.

Mac 2275 excellent sound, convenient to use with a wide range of inputs and outputs,remote control, no exotic tubes and an excellent phono preamp (especially with Sovetek 12AX7LPS's in the phono section). This is the heart of my base system while I fool around with other stuff experimenting with different components I always return to this system to just listen to music.

Lots of good ones out there in your price range. Here are some uniformly rated components for build quality and performance of sound: Exposure 2010, LFD Zero III,McIntosh 6300, Plinius 9200, Bryston SS100, NAIM5i and their new NS.
