Looking to upgrade to Class A/B Integrated DAC Amp

Purchased a pair of Aerial 6Ts recently and looking to upgrade My Amp. I currently use a Primare I-32 Class D w 230W into 4ohms. Looking for an integrated sub $10K that can also stream. Have been told to look at:
Goldnote IS-1000 Deluxe
Hegel H-390
Krell K-300i
Thoughts? Recommendations? I am new to Audiogon so any feedback appreciated.

Have a look at the AVM A6.3 or 8.3. Outstanding products, outstanding quality.

Hi!

Fairly new to Audiogon myself, saw your post and thought I would chime in as I was in your exact same situation myself. After much research, with a limited budget myself, I went the way of a separate streamer/DAC even though my final choice of Amp, a Krell Vanguard Integrated, was available with the option of a built-in DAC, this was a $1500 option. I ended up spending the $1500 on a Cambridge AZURE 851N Streamer/DAC. This combination worked out very well for me and allows me to upgrade my Streamer/DAC in the future, as this technology is advancing quickly. I don't see upgrading my Integrated for a very long time.

Good Luck!
