Looking for an Integrated Amplifier to match Totem Rainmaker Speakers
Hello,
Curious if folks have recommendations for integrated amps that pair well with Totem Rainmaker speakers.
Currently using a Rotel RA-12 which is a Class A/B design. The Rotel is bright and edgy, and I actually find that the Totem's smooth it out nicely. That said, I'm looking for something that's a bit more premium, and maybe more dynamic at lower volume levels.
I don't have a lot of space, or electrical outlets, so looking for an option that has a phono stage built in. Sources are Bluesound Node 2i (Tidal HiFi & Redbook FLAC files), and Pro-Ject Debut Carbon (upgraded platter, Speed Box PSU, and Ortofon 2M Blue cart).
Budget is $1500 new, and I prefer to stay under $1000 used. Don't mind paying more for new gear when I'm getting dealer/manufacturer support along with a warranty.
Thanks, and cheers!
Matthew
