Have a bug for a new (to me) integrated


Hello all. I am seeking some opinions on a new to me integrated. Currently I have a Cary SLI80HS powering my beloved Volti Razz speakers. I want to keep the Cary, it really is a great tube amp. It's just that I've never powered my Razz with SS and I am very curious. Also I enjoy rotating gear in and out of my set up, always have. 

I have narrowed my pre-owned contenders a bit, I am open to other suggestions too.  Trying to stay in the $3 to $4k range. I listen mostly to metal, rock, and Jazz. Room is about 12'x12, not well treated other than a love seat and a couple other pieces of furniture.

Thank you!

I'm not expert, but I have an Advance Paris A10 Classic, and the preamp portion of it has tubes and I love the sound.  You can save a third of the price if you go gray market.  Just search on eBay. Given your budget, you can probably swing the A12.

Sugden OR Accuphase.  Why not.  I’ve owned lots of Sugden, heard enough Accuphase.  Great stuff.  Enjoy the immediacy and slam.

I ran a SLI80 for a while.  Great integrated.  Does the replacement have to be an integrated or can it be and amp and separate preamp?  Also, do you need a remote?
