I am looking for a good integrated amp to pair with KEF LS50 speakers and Dynaudio X32 speakers. I have Primaluna separates that are 45 or so watts per channel) but sometimes want to just go in and fire up the old stereo and start listening instead of warm up time etc. My Primaluna sounds great with the majority of my music (acoustic, folk, jazz) but sometimes I would like to play some King Crimson of something harder or not so well recorded. Any recommendation on an integrated amp (I only have one shelf available) that would work. Both of these speakers are around 86 db so more power would be great. I am trying to keep it in the 2000.00 or less price range for new or used. I mainly listen to cds through a Marantz 6005 cd player. Would an integrated be a smart move. New to the site and saw so much for sale by members I just thought I would ask. Any help or advice would be much appreciated. I am in Oklahoma so not much chance of listening in any stores. Open to offers from members with equipment for sale. Thanks.
Tvfreak, I heard LS50's twice driven by an Ayre 5, so bright I could hardly listen to them, I remember thinking they were NAD material,you're a genius LOL.
