So recently I have owned a few integrated amps, to characterize each----- Marantz WARM (a little too smooth) NADFLAT (no punch) CambridgeWARM and FORWARD (powerful) For the price range that I can afford, these are all good amps but just missed the mark for my ears.
Very powerful and; adjustable (tone control) to meet individual preference
Must set LOUDNESS button to find tonal match for room acoustics
