Have you listened to the Anthem STR integrated if not try to find a dealer that you can demo one at, you will be surprised how well it sounds and the DAC inside is also up to the task, plus it comes with ARC room correction.
All-in-one integrated, 10-15K range, class A/B only
For a second system. I want to buy a SS all-in-one integrated. At least 200W in 8ohm.
When I say all-in-one means it has to have DAC built-in (preferable a very nice DAC commensurate to the price point of the system). I would highly prefer a streamer built-in as well.
Am super excited about the new Boulder 866. It seems to be the only one satisfying all the criterion.
Another option could be the Accuphase E-800 with DAC module (but no streaming).
DAG Progression but it crosses 18K without DAC.
Any other options?
I am not interested in anything Class-D. It has to be Class A/B amplifier.
Speakers are TBD as well.
