Proac D48R

Proac owners, I need advice for a integrated amp for the Proac D48Rs. I listen mostly to classic rock an jazz. My budget is 5k new or used market.

In my experience, ProAcs love ARC tubes. The VSi75 should be enough to drive your speaks. On the SS side Pass INT-60. Both amps a little outside your budget but your speakers are worth it. What are you using now?

They do love tube gear. I ran AR and Quicksilver much of the time. If you want something different, Primare is a GREAT match also. For some reason, they have synergy. Worth a listen if you are able to.

It is in your price range new, with a minor discount, and is a real consideration if you are looking for an integrated amplifier. 33 wpc of pure class A listening pleasure.
