Which is best American Amp in $1500-2000 range?


I am considering the idea of upgrading my amp and I would like to know what are the best choices for INTEGRATED amps in the $1500-2000 price range. What are the best-buy options, that have the best cost/quality relation? Please tell me only the best american brands, not the british or chinese. Thanks!

I probably shouldn't ask but why not the best amp rather than the best American amp?
Hi Macrojack,

Because I already know what are the best British amps...and I don't trust the Chinese in the amp department.
The Rogue Tempest II is wonderful. A little over your stated budget but can be found used from time to time.
Another vote for Rogue. And, Cary for that matter. You also may want to check out Granite, though it's tough to find used - excellent equipment.
