Alternatives to Cary CAD 300SEI, what are they?

Looking for some alternatives to Cary, not because its bad, just want to know and maybe try something else, but what exactly, not sure, so, share some with me please.

Personally, I like SE idea, but also would like to stay within the same budget, that's the only preferences I have.

My friend has the Cary and it's a nice integrated but I think there are better alternatives.

If you are able to find one on the used market, an Air Tight ATM-300 integrated. A bit more than the Cary (used vs. a new Cary) but a world class unit.

If you aren't absolutely tied to the idea of SET (hard to find one at the Cary's price point in a 300b SET that will have decent bass) you might consider the Leben CS-300XS. This integrated retails for $3500 USD and it sounds VERY good IMO.

Which speakers are you looking to mate the amp to?
