New McIntosh MA252 I just received mine yesterday, using it in my office rig. I am very impressed with build and sound quality. When I get around to it, I will compare it with my PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium integrated. | |
Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK? @markmendenhall - this is brilliant! It made me laugh (and it was much needed)!! Thank you! | |
Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK? Study up on the design of the Ayre AX-5 Twenty. Then take a listen. You will be amazed. | |
Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK? @scaresta - I totally agree with you. I own an E-600 (office rig) and it's a great piece. OP has not stated a budget so it might be beyond his price threshold. | |
Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK? @beetlemania,I agree with you. You would spend at least twice the price of an AX-5 Twenty to better its performance. I just went through an fairly exhaustive journey over the last two years. The Ayre is a game changer for sure. I didn't menti... | |
Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK? Luxman L-590AX ii. List price of $8,995. None better at that price IMO. | |

Ayre AX-5 Integrated Amplifier I love my AX-5 Twenty. It’s still not fully broken in and continues to improve even with 150 hours of use. | |

Picking a Tube integrated amp I have owned my PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium integrated for 3 years now. Trouble free and built like a tank! | |

Upgrading form Pass integrated amplifier to a better one @denon1 - good move on the Esoteric upgrade going from K-05X to K01X. I did exactly the same thing earlier this year. A few months ago, I also purchased an Aurender N10. You will be handsomely rewarded!Congrats! | |

Luxman 505UX vs. Luxman 550AX Integrated Amps I owned a Luxman L-590AX integrated for about a year. It’s a great amp and provides excellent value for all the features it has. I’ve gone up the food chain a bit to Accuphase E-600 (twice the price as the Luxman when you add the cost of a phot... |
