NAD C375Bee or Yamaha A-S2000

I'm looking for good sounding powerful amp to drive my classic Theil CS2 and Klipsh Heresy's. I can get either of these amps around $1300 even thought the Yamaha sells for $1900. Which would be better? Any other integrated amps I should consider around $1200?
Thanks,

I just purchased a Yamaha A-S1000 and really looking forward to setting it up and listening.  The other contender was the NAD C375BEE.  I know this will sound shallow, but though I'm sure the NAD is a great amp, it just looks much "cheaper" than the Yamaha.  A plus for the NAD though is that it does appear to have a tape loop, but I may be wrong.

Willand, I've had the A-S1000 now for going on two months.  And it is truly impressive.  Both the quality and purity of the sound (nothing added; nothing taken away) are fantastic.  I've got it connected to ML Motion 40's, a Music Hall mmf-7.3 TT and Onkyo CD.  Together they sound very impressive.
