| After years of separates, I'm going integrated. Anyone else do the same? NO, why would I want my sound quality to go backwards? | |
| Intergrated Amp suggestions for B&W 805d4 The best by far integrated SS unit I have heard to date is the new Mark Levinson. ML hired a few industry designers to design It and the sound is something quite special. MSRP is $9K if I remember correctly. You can probably find a B unit for u... | |
