Integrated amplifier for ATC SCM 19v2


I recently upgraded my speakers to ATC SCM 19V2

I mostly listen to 70's - 90's rock n roll, jazz, blues and instruments (piano, guitar, etc) in a medium / average sized room.  Listening levels are generally at low to medium levels, sources are currently CD and Bluetooth.  Am in process of ripping my CD's to put on a hard drive so streaming is definitely in my future for ease of listening

My current equipment is

     Primare I32 integrated amplifier with DAC

     Audiolab 8200 CD

     REL T5i sub

     Kimber Kable 12TC (2×4) speaker cables

My goal is to get a fuller, more musical and clearer sound with a better amplifier and am ope to buying demo or a clean used item.

Any thoughts or suggestions from current or prior ATC SCM 19V2 users would be greatly appreciated 

Thank You

@1bule, My speakers are the PMC Twenty5.1. I owned an expensive integrated amp but was not happy with the sound quality. I called my retailer, explained the situation and what I was looking for. We discussed it in detail, and he suggested I demo the Musical Fidelity M6Si integrated amp. This is a huge downgrade in price BUT this amplifier sounds so good, I cannot believe it. I invited my friends over and everyone agreed. They all said my system sounds excellent and I agree. 

The Musical Fidelity M6si offers excellent performance, facilities, and power. As per the Musical Fidelity web site “Internally, the M6si is configured as 2 independent monobloc power amps with a separate preamp. It is, in fact, a preamp with 2 monobloc power amps that just happen to share the same casework. The M6si has 220wpc. It has very low distortion, outstanding noise ratio and extremely flat frequency response”. I am very happy with my Musical Fidelity M-6Si integrated amp since this amplifier deliveries the sound quality I am looking for. In other words, the ’magic’ has returned.

I suggest you demo the Musical Fidelity M-6Si integrated amp.
