Smooth sounding integrated


I’m looking for a smooth sounding solid state integrated amp that is not muffled sounding for less the $1000. Is there anything like this? Years ago I had a Denon stereo receiver that sounded pleasant for tv and movies in our lively family room. A lot has changed since then and would like to try going down this road again, but with a better integrated amp for the family room.

Upscale Audio was/are selling the Music Fidelity model 2si for $599. At that price very hard to beat. 
Lots of great recommendations. I'm getting a feeling which are smoother yet detailed amp.
BTW, What Hi-Fi said the Brio has an excitable high end and needs careful speaker matching so my MS Silver 6 may not be a good match.

i like the rogue sphinx at 100 watts for under 1K used. NOS tubes smooth it out for sure
