High Quality Integrated to power Mani-2


I am in the market for a high quality integrated (new) to power my brand new pair of Totem Acoustic Mani-2 Signatures. I want to keep the price under $3500, phono stage is not necessary but would be a bonus. Must provide over 350 watts per channel @ 4 ohms and still be able to handle the low ohm swings of the mani-2 (down to 1 ohm). The ones I have found so far that meet my criteria are

Plinius 9200
Musical Fidelity A5
Krell KAV-400xi

I noticed that someone mentioned trying the GamuT amps.

If the the Mani-2's do in fact drop to 1 ohm at some point, then I would forget the GamuT lineup. One of the GamuT's most noted "safety features" is that they shut down when impedance drops to 1.5 ohms
