The idea behind high end integrated amplifiers is to retain the majority of performance (sonic and aesthetic) offered by state of the art separates while simplifying the experience. A simple system with a set of loudspeakers, an exceptional integrated amplifier, and a turntable can be very attractive. I have a darTZeel CTH-8550 Mk2 in my studio that sounds lovely and fits in with my clients' lifestyles rather than demanding they work around it. It's freeing. |
