Integrated for Cornwall IV

I'm currently running a Lyngdorf TDIA 3400 on my Cornwalls. Don't get me wrong, it sounds very good. To me the main selling point of the Lyngdorf is the Room Perfect Room correction. It's made a significant improvement on every speaker I've owned but on the Cornwalls not so much. Sometimes I prefer it off and sometimes on. On my Focals I just sold it was always on, no question.

So I am thinking of changing the Lyngdorf out for a Class A integrated or a tube integrated. Couple I've been eyeing are the Sugden A21SE, Ayon Spirit (guy I bought them from was using an Ayon integrated and it sounded really good), Octave V40??? Any suggestions very welcomed.  

Criteria: I like all kinds of music so needs to play metal/rock with impact as well as acoustic type music. Must have a preout for subs. 

 

Thanks

@mofojo if SS is in the cards, I’m guessing the latest Krell integrated, think it’s the 300i would be a great match.

It has the first 90 watts in class A, should pair really well with the Cornwallis.

Good Luck.

I would strongly suggest something with tubes.

Has anyone had experience with an Octave integrated on the Cornwalls?

Just paid for a Jolida 1000RC integrated that I’m picking up after my Vegas trip late next week. Local and good price. Really liked the couple Jolida pieces I’ve had in the past so we shall see. Much less than I was planning to spend. For the price I can unload it easily and break even if not make a hundred or two.
