Seperates vs Integrated at $2000


I would like to hear from members that have moved from an integrated to seperates or the other way around . Given the same approximate value, @ $2000 total used, is one configuration beneficial over the other ?
I know that this has been discussed elsewhere but not within the context of equal and specific values .
I would be listening to fast dynamic music such as classic rock and contemporary blues, near field and in a small room . Low level characteristics are important .
Can anyone help ?

If you are just interested in 2 channel and not interested in HT, I think you're better off going with an integrated. Single box, less IC's to deal with, one less power cord to deal with, equals more money to spend on a single box and less synergy issues to contend with.

I personally love the fact that for 2 channel I can use my Plinius (SS) or Eico (tube), both are integrated. Then if I want to do HT, I can switch over to my Sunfire separates.

Hope this helps and good luck,
Mike
