An Integrated to replace Adcom 555II & 500II ??


I want to replace my GTP-500II tuner/preamp & GFA-555II amp combo for an integrated amp. My amp is 20 yrs old and has a high frequency distortion from the right channel. Fixing it seems silly since something else can go at anytime with either unit.

I happen to LOVE the sound of this combo (warm, powerful, crisp bass). I use it with Aerial 5s and a marantz CD-67II.

I wanted to spend between $1000 - 1500. Ideally even less. Maybe even a AV receiver that would do the job - but i tried a Harmon Kardon 10 yr old av receiver and it sounded much worse.

THANKS!

Rega and Exposure both make very musical integrated amps and will splash the Adcom gear. The Plinius suggestion is also very good.
