| which budget integrated amp Rotel, NAD or other One of the best integrated within $1.5k budget for me was used Krell KAV300i. It might be more expencive, but often available used and obviously better for Usher than above mentioned Nads, Rotels and Regas. | |

| Can you lower gain requirements on tube amp? I have SS Sunfire Symphonic reference amp with 1.2V input sensitivity. Virtually there's no way that it will sound right with passive preamplification. When I used to have VTL MB100, they will sound at their best either with unity gain active prea... | |
