???What's The LEAST Expensive "End Game"Amplifier You've Ever Heard???

Pretty simple question..
While I’m sure the "No Such Thing" crowd will make sure they represent,I’m not interested in their rhetoric..
I am however,most interested to hear from those who have heard integrated amplifiers they could get off the merry go round with,ESPECIALLY if it was on the more budget end of cost..For myself it would have to be the Sugden A21SE but that was 2 years ago,before the cost climbed to $4000.00......
Thanks for participating..

Preamp: a well-kept, used VAC Renaissance Mk V
Amp: for end-game (it could compete with $50k+ amps if using the right accompanying equipment, one needs to spend a bit more. If using a tube preamp - Parasound JC1+ monos (lightly used)

Schiit Kara preamp + Tyr Monoblocks (made in the USofA) will keep you right at $4000

Sounds like 4k is way above what the OP considers affordable. People, please lower your bar…….

About 2 months ago I replaced my 20+ yo PSAudio GCC250 it stopped making any sound. though the lights came on. Considering shipping and repairs I asked a audio friend, who HIGHLY recommended this. I am very happy regardless of it’s low price
