@lewm, mosfet?
I owned the AS2100 (model just next down from the 3000), excellent integrated, very good sounding for the money, nice dynamics and power, has an MM stage, which is good but nothing special. It was a current unit in 2017 Lew, now they have 3100 and 2200 IIRC, same concept but new power supply and new circuit.
I was using the 2100 with the Budgie from Parks Audio and it was better IMO than the integrated MM on the Yamaha
