Budget integrated amp needed


I have a little bedroom system - NAD receiver, Pioneer SP-BS21 speakers and a Bluesound Node. It fits my bedroom music needs perfectly! Unfortunately, the NAD, from the mid 90’s, has had it- 

I am looking for a replacement integrated. I don’t need Bluetooth DAC or AirPlay- just a straight forward integrated and low power is fine. 
 

Suggestions please! Ideally budget is about $300- give or take and I’m not adverse to used 

 

thanks!

zavato… Though you asked about an integrated, you wrote “Suggestions please”. In that spirit l offer something additional that may help with the $.

Since this post was for your bedroom system, I presume that space is also important. Reading your system details & that you don’t mention a tuner, I’m thinking that the bedroom setup is only streaming.

1) There is a current Agon listing for a used Powernode ($250) that’s a similar version to your current Node. You could then flip your current Node and end well under budget.

Or

2) Again if streaming only, moving to an amp alone (vs an integrated) may help to insure the budget is not exceeded.

In either case, the Bluesound app would eliminate the pre-amp portion.

Good luck with your hunt.

 

PS Audio Sprout is in budget, tiny footprint, tremendous versatility, and will sound as good as you need it to sound.

 

I picked up a used Yamaha A-S301 integrated for my office for$301. It's a great amplifier. Look into the reviews. It might suit your needs.

What Hi-Fi:
The three-time Award-winning Onkyo A-9010 is excellent value and one of the most musically satisfying budget amplifiers we've heard in recent years

So I bought it and it is incredible
