Yeah I'm familiar with the C5i, it's the new version of my S300iU - which kicks ass.
Anybody ever heard/used Jolida? Their prices seem extraordinary - almost too good to be true.

E.......Did you ever make up your mind about an integrated amplifier? Were any of the recommendations here worthy contenders?

We're still in discussion - the Peachtree was returned without incident.
The Creek is certainly roaming near the top of a very short list. Once the buyer makes up his mind I'll post the result and the impressions after I get it hooked up.

This one is pretty good, at least to my ears.

Why not the Bel Canto?
Seems like a no brainer if you want digital... |

The client moved to a slightly different solution (for now) attaching this room to an additional zone from the main system.
Time will tell... o.O
