@signaforce the recommendation to look at an integrated amp of space is a constrain is a good one. I’ve had the PrimaLuna Evo400, Krell 300i (latest XD version) and Coda CSiB. The Coda and Krell were fantastic and can drive any speakers. As noted, on the CSiB, start with the V1, will offer more Class A watts, you can always have it converted to V2 or V3. You can find a used CSiB for what a Coda 8 would cost, might be fun to buy the integrated, try it out, compare, if you don’t like it, sell it and shouldn’t lose much or anything, likely selling it for what you bought it for. The CSiB can be used as a Pre as well, worked well for me but I don’t like that the entire unit was in, the amp included when I was using it as a Pre only.
on the BHK, PS Audio has said it’s discontinued, reason for the 50 % off sale. They haven’t announced what’s replacing it yet, if you look at their BHK line, they already discontinued the 250 amp, I’m guessing (no actual knowledge) they are revamping or replacing the entire BHK line. The line has been their reference line for I think over a decade. There aren’t any crazy leaps forward in Preamp design, technology, parts will come out that might be quieter, measure better than previous offering incremental improvements. If the BHK strikes your fancy, Inwouldnt hesitate to buy it. Now, for $ 3500 you can also get some great used Pre’s. LTA also makes unbelievable equipment, they also just came out with a DAC that is really well reviewed.
Keep us posted. Curious what you buy and how you like it.
