Integrated Amp: Karan Acoustics KAi-180mk2 - built like a tank, sledgehammer control of bass, dead silent background, beautiful timbre and incredible soundstage, but pricey and heavy (aging has me focused on smaller/lighter gear)
Power Amp: Neurochrome Modulus-286 - mine was built by @tomchr and the build is clean and meticulous, I admire Tom’s ethics and focus on quality/reliability, the amp is an absolute chameleon - passes on whatever it’s fed with no editorializing, the clarity is amazing - everything just seems to be of a piece, it incorporates soft start, speakOn connectors, speaker protection and 12V trigger. Tom’s work isn’t as cheap as many of the darlings here, but if you value quality, reliability and performance it’s worth the expense.
