Searching for a new Pre/Pro Again


I used to have a NAD T753 that was mated to A Bryston 9BST with Paradigm Studio speakers. Recently I sold my NAD and bought a Outlaw 990. To my ear, outlaw separates different channels of sounds much more clean and clear. But the big issue is that the sound is more machine like, very bright, cool, and harsh. I used to enjoy Norah Jones (Comes away with me) very much with the NAD. But now I could not even sit through one single song. I am going to get rid of outlaw soon and thinking of going back to a NAD Pre/Pro. Do I have other alternatives that would not break my bank?
Thanks for all advice.

"I heard reports saying Integra is not smooth for music reproduction." No. What has been said is that the Integra's analog inputs are inferior to using its digital inputs. So, it boils down to whether you have analog sources or not. In the system where I use(d) the Integra, all my sources are digital and I was very happy with it.
