Amp/Preamp Asylum Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here. |

I own a Musical Fidelity A5 that I am thinking about replacing with another integrated for a few reasons. I have an expensive DAC that mates well with my server and would like to keep it for awhile, so I don't think I need digital inputs on any new integrated. It seems, however, that the new integrateds in my price range ($2000-3000) almost all include DAC circuitry that I don't need and for which I'd rather not pay.
Any recommendations for current production solid state integrateds introduced in the last couple of years that do NOT include digital inputs? I need approximately 100w per channel, although more probably would be better. (I currently am driving Revel Performa F32's and won't be in a rush to replace them.) A built-in or modular MM phono input will save me the trouble of having to get an outboard transformer for which I have little space in my cabinet, so that's a plus, too.
I am open to buying used, but would like to buy something a bit more modern than the A5 that I now have. If I have to choose sonic characteristics to emphasize, I want what the Brits call PRAT, great imaging, and excellent reproduction of upper order harmonics.
Any suggestions?
