2nd system for office, all-in-one integrated suggestions
The BELLES ARIA @ $2200 or the Musical Fidelity at $2600 M6....both are excellent sounding....My Belles has been replaced by an Aavik. I'd sell for $1600....9-10/ 10 like new.  
PS Audio Stellar phono question

  rpeluso......I get where you’re coming from but as you can see , for many on here, the country of China is a no- no. There are some fine products made in China so it’s not about the Quality...it’s about an adversary ( enemy).....Unfortunately, ...

I looked at the Perlistens....Not worth 14K IMO......Bought the Borresen X-3's for 11K....much better looking and the Borresen sound is lifelike even at low volume.  Looks wise there is no comparison. The X-3's are a  work of art. and made in Denm...

  @yyzsantabarbara...First of all it’s Aavik....not Aavrik....and quit comparing a 2K amp to a 15K amp... Compare your Coda to an equivalently priced amp. The Coda is overpriced...the Peachtree Isn’t.

  @yyzsantabarbara .....I don't own the T+A but do own the Aavik U-150 integrated Class D Amp. The Soundstage is the Deepest I've ever heard ( if you don't like Forward)  The width also extends way beyond the physical speakers. It plays with deli...
