What integrated to go with Paradigm studio/60's???


Hi guys, I'm new to the audio game and am kind of disappointed with my current system. The sound is all there but without the realism they had at auditioning. Vocals tend to be hidden or mushed into the intstruments making them sound unclear. Also, whenever my system tries to really rock out with complex peices it sounds confused and lacks any coherent clarity. My system is:

NAD T531 DVD player
Music Hall MMF 2.1 w/Grado Gold cartridge
Rotel RQ 970BX phono preamp
NAD T752 reciever
Paradigm Studio 60's

My sound isn't what I heard from my speakers when I auditioned them leading me to believe there's a mismatch upstream. I think I'd like to switch my receiver for an integrated amp around $1000. Does anyone with these speakers or similar ones have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Keith

Look at a Unison Unico integrated. It's a good tube integrated for the money. I also like the Creek and Rotel integrateds.

I've heard both of them just not together. After hearing the Unison though in my opinion it would be a good match. I also agree with chris above that another option would be to get a good 2ch amp and add it on to your receiver. Look at maybe used classe, rotel, arcam, mcintosh amps.
