Class A Integrated amps


I am currently running a class A Fisher 800 C receiver and a Pair

of Large Advents.  Very happy with this set up but feel I am missing out.

I am planning to up grade with Marantz integrated amp and Klipsch forte lll or lV.  
Cant seem to find info on Marantz equipment that says they are class A.  
also not sure if I should concentrate on a 7.2 Channel a for surround sound. I really just like to immerse in good fidelity with music and a glass of wine.

Hello,

Perhaps you have already purchased your amp BUT, as I wrote in another thread, I think that Grandinote makes some of the best integrated pure Class A amplifiers I’ve ever listened to.

Even the entry-level Shinai with its 37wpc can really shine with most of the speakers available and they make several better version, even in dual chassis version!

The new Solo, that I’ve had the pleasure of listening to Axpona 2024 it’s a true GEM!

It’s beautiful (to my eyes 😉 ), customizable, extremely compact for the wattage/performance (60 wpc) and it can includes or the phono stage or the streamer DAC in one single unit...

I think that IT will deserve a try if you are looking for a very uncompromised integrated.

To conclude...all the Grandinote electronics use a patented technology, are completely designed and hand-made in Italy!

On the website there a LOT of extremely positive reviews...

and the entry-level Shinai it’s used in Stereophile Robert Schryer reference system!

Have a good listening!
