Valinar,
You can not go wrong with the Coda CSi. I wanted to upgrade from my Primare A30 amp back 12 months ago. After auditioning quite a lot of amps, in particular LSA (muscle amp but too butch) and Ayon Spirit (valve amp, refined but too slow and reserved), I came across the Coda CSi, which my favourite Hi-Fi retailer (also UK importer for Coda) recommended I auditioned. I loved immediately the way it brings the music together with authority, control yet can be refined and precise when required. I have been living with it for nearly a year now and am a big fan of Coda, which I never heard of before.
HiFi Plus magazine awarded Best Amp 2009 to Coda...not the CSi though, it's bigger brother (amp + pre-amp).
I hope it helps.
Good luck
Patrick.
