Considering McIntosh MA352

Greetings. My first forum post. I am considering upgrading my amp and looking at the McIntosh MA352. I currently have a Quad - Vena integrated amp, VPI Prime Scout turntable and Focal Chorus 726 speakers. The MA352 integrates both tubes and solid state technology (so best of both worlds with tubes and the famous blue meters) and would be an eye catching centerpiece in the vinyl room. Any thoughts about this set up or other recommendations are welcomed. Cheers.

I have had mine for about 2 months and love the sound.  The looks are off the charts.  It is a tube preamp with solid state amp which has always been my favorite combination.  I have had 2 McIntosh tube preamps with multiple McIntosh solid state amps.  The last was C2600 preamp with M452.  This sounds close to that.  So no one asks I sold the C2600 and M452 because I needed the money.  I am extremely happy with the 352.  My speakers are Sonus Faber Veneer 3.0.  
Good Luck
