Integrated brand choice -- Simaudio, Hegel or Mark Levinson?

I agree with freediver and mickeyb. I have tested hegel H390, H590, Mark Levinson 8505 and many others manufacturers. Hegel sounds like no soul and mark levinson is thin and laid back sound. Accuphase E-450 or E-470 are very musical and to bright side. You can read my test. Bryston 4B3 was very positive supprise. A lot of body and musical. I ended up to accuphase E-450 and PS Audio DirectStream as DAC. 

That is true. Only what i want to add is you have to listen in your home first There is no short cut if you want to find best unit for yours system.
