Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK?


I’m trying to find a HIGH QUALITY integrated that has:
1. A no-corners-cut real class A - A/B power stage.
2. A real, high quality analog preamp line stage.
3. A good phono stage.

Aside from a few very high end products, the above described integrateds seem not to exist. Why can’t I find a quality integrated? Do we just have to accept having a pile of boxes?

That is Totally wrong !!  Pass labs integrated ,
Gryphon Audio,FM Acoustics , Ensemble sudio, Accuphase, 
Mcintosh, Mark Levenson, and there are much more High quality integrated out there.
If you have the money $10k and up retail  they can equal and best many seperates out there, less cables more direct less conversion circuitry up to 90lbs.
