Look at the Peachtree Nova300. I have one and it is a quality sounding amp for the money. My room is approximately the same size, and I can easily go into volumes that are far too loud to enjoy with no distortion. My main use is feeding a bunch of FLAC/ALAC and AIFF files into the amp via USB through Swinsian on my mac mini, and it sounds great. I plan to upgrade speakers at some point, but I am currently running a set of Motion 40's that double as my fronts in a 7.1 home theater system. The Nova300 does double duty in my HT setup via home theater bypass, but I could easily live without this if I had a second set of speakers for the fronts.
Recommend Affordable Integrated Amps (Solid State or Tube)
Looking for an affordable, good sounding integrated amp costing no more than $3500. It must be able to play CDs and Vinyls as well as digital music from iTunes (some 30,000 songs) stored in AIFF format. Currently have an Accuphase E 307 integrated amp using Kimber Kable interconnects and speakers cables with jumpers. Current speakers are KEF Q700. Analog is Linn Basic with an Akito tone arm and Rega Exact 2 Cartridge. CD player id a Marantz 5004. I listen mainly to jazz, R&B, Pop, world, etc. at moderate listening volumes. Room size is about 17 x 24 feet with 8 foot ceiling.
Would love to have suggestions.
