Plinius or YBA


I have recently sold my B60 to a friend.
My search for a new integrated is down
to the Plinius 9200 or YBA Passion.
My system consists of Dunlavy SClll speakers(91db)
and a Marantz SA-14 cd player.
The added cost of the YBA,around $1000 more, is
not critical. I'm looking for long term enjoyment
and completing this small system. The room is 12x17,
and music choices are all over the board.
I give thanks to any and all inputs but ask not
to give me more choices-it will be one or the other.

Thank you,
Attila Simon

I just wanted to add my impressions that the Plinius might
be more dynamic while the YBA may be a little cleaner and more refined. Anybody else?
If anybody is curious, which doesn't seem
too likely judging by the amount of input
that I received, I purchased the YBA. Two
different salespeople both felt the YBA was
the better amp, which was quite convincing
seeing that they sold the Plinius and not
the YBA.
Thanks anyway,
Attila Simon
I own a older Plinius 8150. Its the predecessor of the 9200. The sound is a peach, being light and airy. I have heard the 9200 and it has the same sound. The only gripe is the phono output is not much chop on low output mc cartridges.
