Which integrated amp do you suggest?


Hi Everyone,
Looking to purchase an integrated amp to match my setup.
My sources include vinyl, CD's and Tidal Hi-Fi (not worried about master quality).
I have a set of Elac Debut 2.0 B6 speakers.

Looking for an amp which has a built-in DAC and the ability to network, or at least connect via laptop (for tidal streaming).

My budget is around 500-600 USD

Looking for an integrated amp which would pair nicely with the Elac's.

There is a used Yamaha A-S501 for sale here on AG. It has DAC and Phonostage. DAC lacks USB input however so a USB/SPDIF converter would be required. They can be had for ~$100. I use a M@Tech hiface which plugs directly into computer USB port therefore negating the need for USB cable. Run coax to Yamaha.

Even new one could purchase the S501 and used converter within your budget.
