Integrated w/phono but no DAC

Another integrated thread:

Could you recommend some integrateds that include a phono stage, but do not have an internal DAC?

Budget: $500-$1000

Speakers: Wharfdale Diamond 10.7 (long 25ft run)

Does anyone make something that also includes a Tuner anymore? Used or new ok!

Thanks!

Being that my Klipsch RB-75s are pretty efficient at 97dB, no real need to twist the volume knob too much to hear detail, punch, depth, etc.

@jl35 Do you have first hand experience with the Anthem 225 and how does it compare to the Belles?  Especially for low-level listening as well?

Thanks!

I have not compared them directly.  The Anthem has 3X the power and is less expensive. I chose to buy the Belles, but you might prefer otherwise...

I would think for low level listening or very high efficiency speakers that the Belles would be my easy choice...
