Best integrated amp for about 2.5k


I'm looking to buy an integrated amp with home theatre pass through. Has anyone heard the musicial fidelty 5 or the Krell 400xi? Was wondering how they would sound vs. my McCormack dna 1 and tlc 1 preamp.

Speakers = Magnepan 1.6's, sub = rel b3. Cd player is naim 3.5 with flat cap.

I would think that a downgrade. If you like the McCormack sound, but just want to go integrated for space, I'd look into a Jeff Rowland Concentra I or II depending on budget.
Krell, Levinson, and MF are more neutral, but leaner sounding than your McCormack gear. Which may or not be what you're looking for.
