Best Integrated that you've heard under $5k


It's a crowded market in the under $5k arena...

Let's hear which integrated amp surprised you and maybe even had you shaking your head in disbelief. 

Watch the first response be, 'no $5k integrated is that good' blah blah blah. You know how it is, lot of old fogeys on here that are done censoring themselves and take it out on the thread.

Also, if I've missed the cutoff and there's just this $6k or $7k amp that is worth consideration, feel free to mention.

Well I am going back her a bit but for an integrated SS amp I would say the NAD3140.... I fired one up a few months ago in my shop and everyone instantly gave it attention..

For tube I would say and old Sherwood S7700 or equivalent, that amp punches way above its price point. 
Naim Supernait 3. Fully class A preamp and headphones. Very good MM phono section. Supernait 3 has a hefty power supply to hold the music signal. The ring core transformer can draw as much as 400 VA from the mains, which is the same as 400 watts. By only using 80 watts for music delivery, you achieve a very stable operation, from a power supply that is never short of breath.
