Integrated Amp Suggestions for Dynaudio Contour 3.4LE


Just bought a floor model of these speakers at a good price. I currently have an NAD M3 Dual Mono integrated and would love to hear how I could do better. Any thoughts on what integrated would best pair with these speakers?

One other twist. I also own the Magnepan 1.7's. It would be great if I had an integrated amp that would sound great with both speakers. That may be a tall order and I am mainly concerned about driving the Dynaudios but just thought I would throw it out there.

Many thanks

The Ayre Acoustic AX-7e integrated amplifier is excellent.  The list price was $3,500 but the unit was recently discontinued so a lower price is possible.  Ayre has the AX-5 Twenty integrated amplifier priced at $12,950 (ouch, over your budget and mine too).   Please see:

I own the Ayre AX-7e amplifier and recommend you check it out. I asked Ayre if they have any plans for a replacement to the AX-7e and am waiting for a response.
