What Integrated Amps Are You Using (or what have you tried?)
 
Since we have really not had a place to extoll the virtues of integrated amps, or to show off our stuff, I think it would be nice to tell what integrated amps we are currently using or have used in the (not so distant) past.

I currently am using a McIntosh MA-7000, and in the past couple of years I owned and used a Rowland Continuum 500, SimAudio I-7, Rowland Concerto, GamuT Audio DI-150, and a McIntosh MA6900.

All had strengths and weaknesses, but I'm very happy with the MA7000.

My first entry into the high-end was some 6-7 yrs ago with a Musical Fidelity A5 integrated amp and I also got the A5 CD player as well.

My first integrated amplifier was a McIntosh MA230. It had a solid state preamplifier and a 30 w/p/c/ tube power amp. It was a sweet piece of gear that I enjoyed for years.

I now have a McIntosh MA5100 solid state integrated amp in my vintage system with a MR74 tuner. The MA5100 sounds great driving my JBL 4312A's.

I've had several integrated amps. When I finally upgraded to McIntosh, I first decided to buy an MA6500 to see if I would enjoy McIntosh sound and I sure did. There are many great integrateds out there... :thumbsup:
