Best Budget Integrated Hands down

I have sorted through over 1000 threads on this site trying to figure out what is the crème de la crème of budget integrated amps (under $1000.) I have come up with a pretty good list of amps that have great things to say about all of them. I have heard plenty of good stuff, are there any amps on this list that have big pitfalls? If any people have done comparisons on these or have a suggestion please let me know.
• Audio Analogue Puccini SE
• Plinius 8100
• Bryston B-60
• Unison Unico
• Blue Circle CS
• Classe CAP-100
• Musical Fidelity A300
• Audio Refinement Complete
Thanks for any help you can give me.

I've auditioned several in your price range. Ended up with the Plinius 8100. You can probably find a good deal now that the 9x00 line is out.

Might want to add the Simaudio i-3 to your list. It's about a thou used and is a solid product.

Are there any features you're particularly interested in? Phono, HT bypass, etc could make your decision easier.
