Integrated Amp - Looking to replace my amp & pre

I know this simular topic has been discussed before, I have a top quality amp (mono blocks)and preamp and I am getting to the point in my audio life where I would like to get a quality integrated amp. SS, tube or hybrid it doesn't matter. Power requirement 50 watts minimum 200+ would also be ok. I would love to hear responses from anyone who has made the switch to a high quality integrated and if they were happy with the switch. Price range $3000 - $10,000 new or used.

Thanks

solid state...krell 400xi..200 watts,beautiful and sounds great.
plinius 9200...200 watts...the same as above, but with a bit more bottom end...
edge g3..great overall
mark levinson 383 excellent
pathos twin tower tube....a
jeff rowland concerto..the best...
i have owned all of these and you can not go wrong with any of them....i listen to jazz at moderate levels and some rock at louder levels and they all perform..great...i think the best buy overall is the plinius for the money...but money doen't always have the answer

Doesn't TRL make one: TRL ST-225?

As a TRL owner, it would seem to be a natural choice.

I have the KR Audio Kronzilla SXi with 50 watts output. Sounds great across the spectrum, but can really take control of the bass. I use it now with relatively sensitive speakers, but have used it with speakers down to 87db, no problem. However, At over 100lbs, it is no fun to lug around.

Bob,

What are your current speakers? What type of sound are you looking for? Are there any features that are important to you, or can you live with a more 'purist' piece?
