Meitner MA3 amp/integrated suggestions
I recently picked up a used Meitner MA3 to combine my streamer and DAC into one unit. I've been blown away by this unit and it's DAC, but more surprisingly it's preamp/volume control have been excellent! I'm currently running it directly into my beloved Oliver Sayes 421a tube amp, with excellent results.
Since I listen almost 8hrs a day, I don't want to burn my tubes that much, so I thought I'd look for a solid state amp, or integrated. Reason I thought amp first was because of the excellent volume control on the MA3.
What are you guys connecting the MA3 to? wpc not a concern since I use highly efficient speakers. since this won't be my main amp i'ld like to find something in the under $3k used budget. Suggestions welcome
@ghasley Have you looked at tube prices these days? They have come down but not to Pre-Putin-Invasion prices. LFD is a great choice and Lejonklou not so much (in my opinion) I had one of their phono-preamps that literally fell apart after 2 years.

@ghasley I hear you on rather listen than save it. Was only jerking your chain. It has been so hot down here I rather listen to an old GE Transistor Radio than heat up my hose with tube heat.
