Best Integrated Amp $1-2k range

Who makes the best out there to power a pair of N.E.A.R 50 MEs? The best for rock, sould and country? Puccini SE? Audio Refinement Complete?

The Bryston seemed better for video/cable movie sound too. While the Naim sounded better with some music, the Bryston was all around easier to live with for my sound needs. Good luck. It is really hard to compare amps because each dealer has a different line of equipment. Most of the integrated amps will be at least good. You will cannot make a bad decision.
