Advice for a choice

hello to all dear ones.
I am going to buy a hi-fi system. I am quite determined about the speakers (Dali Oberon 7) and the cd streamer player (Marantz nd8600). As for the amplifier, I am undecided between Marantz pm8006 (but I don't need a turntable) and Cambridge cxa81. I ask you for an opinion about these components. Tell me if there is an equally valid amplifier in that price range. I thank those who want to express their opinion.
Best wishes

The Marantz ND8006 also has WIFI and Bluetooth. At that price ($969.95) it can't be beat!

@roberjerman. Thanks.  Do not worry. in Italy I found a shop that sells it for € 1,150.

Pardon,  do you mean this amp pm8006?

thanks for the replies. you are helping me to get a clearer idea

Yes, that would be the matching amp! Again, this is an outstanding pair!

I have the Marantz ND8006 CD/streamer and it plays beautifully. I also purchased the PM 8006 integrated amp and enjoyed it for a few months but I needed more juice for my Dynaudio Special 40s---not very efficient. So I have a separate tube preamp and amp and couldn't be happier. I'm not familiar with the Dali's so it may be enough. The PM8006 is a great piece.

I have a brand new Marantz pm8006 in the sealed unopened box for $949, saving you $250. Look at my items for sale. Bought as  back up to my pm14s1....but need to sell it. Both the nd8006 and pm8006 are EISA award winners. You can't go wrong with Marantz. Even their entry level amp the pm5005 has extensive positive reviews. I used to own the pm6005 and that thing was awesome.
