I can see your opinion on integrated amplifiers. There have been many that fall short of what separates can do. That said; a good designer could put a great pre amplifier in the same box with a power amplifier.  It all depends on how things are laid out internally, and the degree of shielding & stray noise prevention.  Internal shielding is down to a good art, though it would make things a bit more expensive. And there are good examples of integrated units, like Pass INT25 (used by reviewers), and the Coda CSiB.  Both have had some excellent reviews.  This is a hobby that is becoming VERY expensive, and some of the better integrated units help to keep costs down a bit, while performing quite well.

@fastcat95 I owned CSiB V1 and used it to drive my Wilson Sabrina speakers, which are a notoriously difficult load dipping into 2ohms. No issues. It’s a great amp and I would highly recommend it.
The sound signature is fairly neutral, slightly cool. Never harsh. Excellent details, fast and articulate bass. Grainless and very clear mids. It’s very musical. Great value under $10,000 and can compete with separates. Go for it.

Thanks for the input!  By describing the CSiB as slightly cool, do you mean in absolute terms, or relative to your preferences on the scale of warm to cool?

How would you describe the higher frequencies?

Many Thanks!

The characteristics described above about the Coda sound similar to good Class D.
