Integrated amp: Can it perform equal to separates?


I need to downsize to lessen moving expenses. Want ot find an integrated amp that can possibly perform equal to separates. Currently have a Bel Canto PRe3 line stage and a pair of Red Dragon M-500 digital monoblocks. I am also getting out of analog, and want to have just two pieces of electronics, that is, an integrated amp, and a CD player.

I need at least 100-150 RMS. Don't need any special features on the integrated that is, theater processor loop or inboarded DAC. Can spend up to approx $2100 for a USED and VGC integrated?? Thanks, Jim

could also look for a CD player with variable output and sell the Bel Canto but keep the red dragons ... not a ton of choices but Ayon, Resolution Audio, Wadia all have models with variable output ... Theta Miles BALANCED would be nice and inexpensive with the Red Dragons too
