I have a list of highly regarded integrated amps in your price range, but haven’t personally heard them except a well regarded previous generation amp. Also, the sonics of the integrated depends on the rest of the audio chain and room interactions.
Best Integrated that you've heard under $5k
It's a crowded market in the under $5k arena...
Let's hear which integrated amp surprised you and maybe even had you shaking your head in disbelief.
Watch the first response be, 'no $5k integrated is that good' blah blah blah. You know how it is, lot of old fogeys on here that are done censoring themselves and take it out on the thread.
Also, if I've missed the cutoff and there's just this $6k or $7k amp that is worth consideration, feel free to mention.
