integrated for zu definition 3

I just got these new def3 speakers and currently have a viva 300p, but want something with a 845 tube but stll very musical and involving.

I know I may not be able to get into the 845 with my budget which, I think I have the viva sold for $2500,and I can add another $1000 so $3500 total.

I know these speakers have the capability of being keepers for life I just need the right amplification.

thanks,Scott

what about the art audio carrisa, with the attenuator? does that allow you to not have a preamp?

Phil,thanks for your wisdom,the viva is not something I can't live with for awhile if need be.

I really want the big glass so may have to wait a bit.I find a good integrated gets me close to separates and less cables and space taken up.

I am not unhappy with the viva 300p,it's just from what I've read a good 845 like master sound compact would be better suited for the def3 speakers.

Thanks again,scott

I really have a stunning sound with the Viva 300 p

I might regret trying the 845 but from all that I can gather its a sonic match made for the Zu Definition 3's

So I will probably save a little more and get a good 845 based integrated or maybe seperates.

thanks,Scott

Thats true,the amp does have that in the room sound. however I just wanted more of that.after moving my speakers closer to the front wall and reading your post about listening to loud, which I think I have been, I might be happy with this amp for awhile. thanks
