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!

@doyle3433  How utterly unfair, the estrangement of those who wish to prognosticate and determine the lifting of your impoverished audiophile caste. You’ve stolen determination rights to direct your discretionary income on subjective materialism. How dare you engage and then freely turn about in your obvious time of need.  A pox on your house indeed.

Our solicited opinions, infallible.  Give us yet another chance to defile your checkbook and bring it into congruent balance with the community.  You’ve robbed oxygen from the process and we implore your resolute reconsideration.  

Do not fail us.

Sorry Everyone I was out for the count this weekend. I really appreciate all the comments and suggestions. 

I was thinking some clarification on my end would be appropriate, regarding what I'm seeking sonically that is. 

While I really enjoy the sweetness and holographic presence the Cary provides, I just have this itch i can't scratch wondering if I am missing some dynamic slam, grip on the upper low end... or something of that ilk. Hard to put into words i guess.
