Recommendation for Integrated Amp with Tone Controls

Hi, I am looking for recommendations for a good integrated amp with tone controls. I want something more attractive than a NAD with enough power to give me some flexibility. Max of $1000 to spend. I am looking for a keeper for the long term.

Sadly enough most audiophile grade amps don't have tone controls but I do find myself missing something if I can't turn the treble up a little bit. Maybe I have some hearing loss from blasting Guns N Roses when I was a teenager. Thanks for the help!

+1 Spencer but if that is not an option I would suggest looking for a Vincent sv 236 mk.

Actually the Sonos has an eq option in the settings.

If I were going based on looks I'd get the Vincent or maybe a vintage received of which I've owned many. If I were going based on sound, I'd still get a Vincent. I ran across a smoking deal on an sv 237 so I snatched it up for a second system but I liked it so much I sold my separates.  It's a keeper for sure.
