Integrated for TAD ME1: Luxman, Accuphase or Soulnote?

Battle of Japanese brands!

Which one should fit better for the marvellous TAD?

Sources: Turntable and Streamer/DAC.

Been thinking in Soulnote A-2, Luxman 590ax II or Accuphase E-480/4000.

Budget around 7-8K€.

Thanks!

The MC output is mediocre - I'm using the other two inputs as MM with SUT and sounds fantastic. Moved from the ARC Ref 2SE due to subsonic issues and the E-2 has a filter. My only complaint is that MC loadings for the US version is only 3, 6, 12, 24, 40 and 100 ohms.
