looking for a Integrated amp $6,000 range

Raven has three under $6k, any one of which will be hard to beat elsewhere without spending a lot more than $6k.

Thanks for the info. I was looking at the Accupahse e480 but just cant justify the us mark up

A little difficult to recommend an amp without knowing what speakers you are using but here goes:

Belles Aria Signature $3495
Ayre EX-8 $5999
And a bit over your budget:
Aesthetix Mimas $7000

I own the Mimas and have listened extensively to the others in my home system.  They are some of the best integrated amps I have heard. If you are anywhere near NJ you can listen to all three as we'll as a few others at the Audio Connection in Verona.

Good Luck!

Luxman, of course!

I recently got an Aesthetix Mimas and can’t recommend it highly enough.
