I have listened to a couple of Rotel integrated amps at dealers in the last few months. For the price you are looking for and for a match with your other pieces I think they will be hard to beat. There are a few to pick from here on Audiogon. No, I am not selling one, nor do I know any one of the people who are.
Used SS Integrated for classical music under $500
Hi. I currently have a back up amp- a Dared VP-20 tube amp. I am planning to sell it and uses the money to buy a SS integrated amp for my family.
My family likes to hear classical music, so I am planning to build a system for them. I have some "spare" components for them already. But I don't think a tube amp is a good idea for them because they probably will forget to turn it off...
The rest of the system:
- a Toshiba SD-4900 CD/DVD player
- Paradigm 3seMK3 monitor or Paradigm Atom
- Audioquest sidewinder IC
- Onix speaker cable
Can you recommend any used SS integrated amp for them
- great for classical music
- fit well with the rest of the system
- it will be in a small room, so it doesn't need to be powerful
- reliable
- and if it has a remote then it will be great. not really a requirement though.
The budget will be around the used price of the Dared tube amp (around 400?) or up until $500. Or where can I trade the Dared tube amp to a SS amp (to simplify the selling and buying process)?
Thanks.
