I haven't listened to every integrated available and honesty submit nothing can be considered the absolute best. What I can say is the Jeff Rowland Continuum S2 is one of the best components that I've ever had in my system. The Bricasti M1 DAC and Artemis EOS speakers are the only other components that made me just say "WOW". The S2 is powerful, nuanced, and very well made.
