You might want to consider an Audiolab 8000S (full retail $1,095) now being closed out at $549 new if Artech Electronics has any left. Audiolab was acquired by Tag McLaren and no longer exists but this amp was current until about a year ago and was very highly thought of at full retail. Might lean towards the analytical, but with the left over $200 you could buy a used Cardas Golden power cord. I use an older 8000A (about 12 years old so reliability should not be a problem!) with a Cardas Golden cord and it really transforms the amp in my opinion. I think you'd have to spend alot more to get not much more performance.
Integrated for Maggie MMG's
If you had $750 to spend on an integrated amp(new or used) for a pair of Magnepan MMG's in a somewhat bright room with an emphisis on Jazz recordings, what would you buy? I will probably get a powered sub at some point to do bass duty. I am leaning towards the NAD 317. Reasons: Decent power,power upgrade with NAD 214, preamp defeat for use in home theater applications and maybe an outboard tube preamp for fun. Please help, this decision is driving me nuts.
