RE: integrated amp recommendations for Focal Electra 1008BE

You are very welcome. Glad to help.

If Cambridge Audio's 851A is similar to its predecessor, the 840A, which I owned several years ago, it will be a bit on the warm side of neutral and provide a touch of tube-like smoothness and liquidity. It might be a nice match for the Focals.

Another possibility, from a brand known for its rich and somewhat warm tonality, is the new Conrad-Johnson CA150. Similar sonics are available from McIntosh, too.

Below are links to two friendly and helpful Cambridge dealers, with whom I've made multiple purchases. Spearit also offers the Conrad-Johnson integrated amp.
