| $4000 budget for amp and preamp I have the Raven Blackhawk and the Peachtree preDAC and the GaN400. Both are awesome, both around $4000. | |

| What Integrated Amp do You use I use a Raven Blackhawk 3.1 as a daily driver.Speakers are Ascend Acoustics Sierra Towers w/RAAL.No complaints. | |
| Raven Audio Nighthawk I received my Blackhawk toward the end of last year when production started up again. I love it. | |
| Best integrated for my purposes - help me choose 1 of 3! @glupson7 it will be quite a while replacing tubes on the Raven as the tubes are run with less power which will cause them to last much longer.I love my Blackhawk.Last for many years. | |
| anyone pair the Kinki Studio EX-M1 amp with Ascend RAAL Towers? I drive the Sierra w/RAAL with a nova 300 for SS and a Raven Audio Blackhawk Mk 3.1 (20 watts, tubes) and the speakers just sound good.Going to build 2 Amp Camp Amps and comfigure the amps for mono next. | |
