Before going exclusively with tubes, I've owned quite a few very nice ss integrateds: BAT VK-300 (6922 tube input version); Plinius 9100; Sim Audio I-5 SE; Musical Fidelity; Jeff Rowland Concentra II; and Accuphase e-408 and E-530 (Class A 30 wpc).
By far my favorites were the Accupahse E-530, followed closely by the JRDG Concentra II (caution, this one runs really warm). Both were incredibly refined & smoooooth! For more power, the Accuphase E-408 was great, just not quite as refined.
I'm a big BAT fan and have tons of respect for Victor, the company & their products (have owned 2 VK-300's, a BAT pre and also the BAT CD player). The VK-300 is great and did nothing wrong; I just didn't connect, emotionally, with the music with it like I did with the Accuphase & Jeff Rowland.
Great speakers (I have the DA-RMa's)!
Best,
Randy
