After years of separates, I'm going integrated. Anyone else do the same?
I bet that Circle Labs A200 would sound much better with a Quantum Science Audio Red/Black Fuse and Black/Red AC Outlet.

Impressions of AGD the Audion MKII Mono Amps
AGD Audion MKII's are the very best amps I've ever heard period.. Tubes or Solid-State . Sounds AMAZING.. "PERFECT" with the Fleetwood Deville Horn Speakers and Backet Labs preamp and Aqua LinQ and Aqua LA Scala together.    My End-Game System ! ... 
KEF Blade or Blade 2
Kef Reference 5 Meta

Magico A1 or Sopra 1 or Marten Oscar Duo
Fink Team Kim is really good too  
Neutral, transparent, warm
New Duntech Audio Senators and the new Fink Team Borgs are some of the most transparent box speakers on the market. Very Quad like !
