Best gain clone/T-amp option


Looking for:

- Power amp only - no attenuator, please.
- At least 20 clean watts into 8 ohms.
- Price: under $1000 new.
- Input impedance at least 100K ohms

For 2nd system/experimentation.

Seems like there are lots of chip/T amps around that are either 1) DIY only and/or 2) Come in integrated form only.

Virtue Audio looks very interesting - probably best option if no non-attenuatored amp shows up.

Monarchy Audio SM-70 or SM-70Pro is a nice, compact class-A amp.

Channel Islands Audio VMB-1 mono-block chip amps are also very good.

I've owned and enjoyed both of the above.
