best integrated amp.

Agree with the Hegel H300, have had mine for 2 years and it steps up to new levels depending on the speakers. I just demoed with Sopra No.2 and its the best the Hegel ever sounded. I like an Integrated that has the next gear when required. I suppose the Hegel didn't perform any better the Sopra's simply let you hear what the Hegel can actually deliver. That to me is a good investment piece.

My Hegel is full and sounds alive. Speakers make a big difference on conveying  how an amp sounds!!!

No blanket statements here. Proper matching is critical.

I believe the Sonneteer is an Amp and not an integrated amp. However does look interesting and made to order, based on web site.
