Integrated Amp Choices
Another vote here for the M33.Had mine for several months now and it still blows me away, playing out to a pair of GoldenEar Triton Ones.It's recently (finally!) been Roon certified and that has just made the icing on the cake for this slick and s... 
Make way for the future....
After 50+ years of separates, many brands and many price points I moved to a simpler set up this year with a NAD M33. Sold the preamp, the two monos, the DAC, the phono stage, the laptop storage, the transport, an equaliser, a tuner, the Revox A77...

Your advice needed, speakers to buy $8K to $13K
I'll chip in and 2nd the suggestion of Tritons...great imaging, open, delicate tops and deep, deep, controlled bass. Have about 91db efficiency. Currently I run an NAD M33 out to mine and have zero complaints. 
Looking for recommendations cabling
I would also go for the Mogami, have used their speaker cables and have not looked back.Received the M33 last month (Australia)  and have been blown away by the synergy with my Rega P6 into Goldenear Triton Ones, its a fabulous. I myself will be o...
