Looking to upgrade from a Plinius 9200 integrated

Looking for options and advice on upgrading from this integrated amplifier. This device does everything I need very well. Looking for one that does it all but better. Considering Rowland concentra 2 with phono stage. Rowland continuum with phono stage. Sources include turntable, cd, satellite tv, and streaming devices. Please advise. Thanks in advance.

I just replaced my Plinius 9100, which I had for around 10 years, with a Gryphon Diablo 300. It sounds absolutely amazing. A massive upgrade.

I'm unfamiliar with ypsilon, gator and t+a. I will research them this evening. Thanks for the input.

There is a modwright integrated I've got an eye on. Any opinions one way or the other on that unit?

Thanks for the pointers. I enjoy the plinius. The upgrade bug is a tough one to shake free from. Recently upgraded the dac from an assemblage 2.7 with a Camelot dragon 5.1 to a bryston bda-1. Wow! What a difference. Tr he amp will be driving psb stratus goldi speakers.

What’s your budget ?
i recently bought a Fantastic sounding integrated with a excellent digital section 
all designed built in Denmark, the Gato400S,
the 250S is also very good if you need less power.

HI Wturkey - I would take a look at the R1000E from T+A.  IT is an amazing all in one (amp, dad,server) which has an optional MC phono board.  Quite astonishing sound quality no matter what the source.

Personally we think you can do better.

Comes down to features and price.

What is the rest of your setup?
