A used Audio Refinement Complete integrated amp made by YBA would fit in nicely for under $700. I am running in my home office, the big brother to the AR Complete, the YBA Integre DT (50 watts) to a pair of original CDM-1. 50 watts is fine, if it is quality watts and you don't plan on blasting rock music all day.
I need amplification.....
Here's the deal... I'm running B&W CDM 1NT's. I'm looking to spend 700 dollars. I know it's not much, but it's all I have at this point. I would like an integrated. Saves space, don't have to shell out the bucks for extra interconnects.. All I have besides the speakers are an NAD DVD for a source and a soon to be in my possesion yamaha tuner. There is a chance I could get a Muscial Fidelity A3. Anyone else have any other ideas? I do have a parasound HCA 500 50 watt amp, so I could go with just a pre amp, but I'm not sure the parasound has enough drive for the CDM's. Any help would be excellent!
