SS integrated with a good DAC


Is there a fairly powerful SS integrated out there with a very good DAC? I am driving some Totem Mani-2's 85 db speakers. Trying to stay in the $1250 - $1500 range. Used gear is OK with me. Is the Peachtree Nova enough amp for the Mani-2's?

thanks

The HEED AUDIO OBELISK Si ( with X-2 even better )does it in a very musical and musculair way. Retail for Si in Europe is € 1250 and for the X-2 € 750. The Dactil 1.2 Dac-card is € 299 but it's a great sounding DAC !! It's even possible to upgrade with an extra amp ( The Obelisk PAS retail € 990) for true bi-amping. I have heard it play and the Heed Obelisk is one of the few amps that really makes the Mani's sing. But I don't know if they are sold in the US already.
