Those Dynaudio's love current and speed. My Confidence 20's mate extremely well with Audionet Max mono's. I agree with the no for Prima Luna, and would not think the Pass or Accuphase would be a perfect match either, but worth a listen. The NAD would be a step down from what you have. I bet the Gryphon amps would be great as well. I would love to hear the Coda stuff.
Thinking about simplifying to an integrated amp
I've been considering simplifying the system a bit.
Currently I have a PS Audio BHK 250 amp and the BHK preamp, but an integrated is looking like an attractive option.
The speakers are Dynaudio Contour 30i https://dynaudio.com/home-audio/contour-i/contour-30i#product_specifications
I would like a piece that sounds at least as good or better than my current electronics. Power should be around 100 wpc, but I'm not sure if less would do the trick. 2 inputs is plenty as long as one of them is balanced.
Needs to have a remote, naturally.
Also would need a pair of line out jacks for the subs.
Under 10K new.
Sim Audio, Pass, Accuphase are some that come to mind.
Previously I had a Hegel H390 which was very decent, but the PS Audio gear was better, so that company may be out of consideration unless new models have gotten better. I also didn't like paying for the internal DAC that I wasn't using. Also on the no list is Prima Luna. Just ok sound and not reliable as it blew a channel in under 1 year of ownership.
Thanks
