There are GOOD integrated amplifiers out there, since the move to a condo i had to scale down on my gear, here are a few integrated amplifiers that i have owned and the last one that i still own.

I'm a big fan of integrated amps and would love to hear this one someday (even if I am a tube guy...).

Pass Labs INT-30A.

It's gorgeous (said like John Lithgow when he spots himself in the mirror on 3rd rock from the sun!) Love the VU meters...

Don't know how I missed this thread! I would love to get a nice integrated for the bedroom. The Concentra 2 would be high on my list too, Andre.

Ever since Paul posted his lust for Vitus Audio, their 'entry level' integrated has caught my eye, too.

Don't be swayed by the price, it may be worth saving for and all you will ever need. You need to hear Vitus to believe...

Hello fife, welcome to AS! :hi:

Have you heard or do you own any VA gear? I have a dealer not that far from me. I'd like to audition one day...
 
Good to know, Jock.

I heard the Dartz integrated at Sound by Singer driving Raidho C1.1s. The combo just invited you in into a huge 3 dimensional soundstage. Very nice!
 
The Ayre AX-5 is a great sounding amp too. It's been getting a lot of early good impressions from people.

Looks like Ayre has a great integrated here. I have not heard a bad word about this piece.

I don't know and haven't had the pleasure of listening to the Dart but the C1.1s throw a huge soundstage with everything. Sometimes too big and unrealistic, but can easily be reduce with speaker placement.

I heard it at CES 2013, but over the years, anything that sounds good in show conditions is something to look into. A bad sound at a show means nothing as almost everything sounds bad or "eh" at a show.
