I too recommend the A40. This amp is an incredible bargain—lively, muscular sounding, big soundstage, and plenty of “weight” to the sound. The built in DaC is very good too. If you are looking to spend more for more power and a touch more authority, the A40’s big brother, the A100 Titan is killer good too.
recommend PRAT Integrated amplifiers (not Naim)
what are some modern integrated amps in the 5-10k range that offer a heavy dose of PRAT
not seeking anything Naim
for some frame of reference, was recently recommended Rega Aethos and Hegel H590...neither had the PRAT of my NAD C298 power amp (which is not an ntegrated and had some harshness to it)
please and thanks
Is the Yamaha A-S3200 or Bryston B135 known for PRAT? Simaudio maybe?
