I don't know which speakers you have but if you want an integrated amp that has the qualities of tubes but a solid state output check out the Pathos. You will have the tight bass you want and an excellent midrange and top end. Deep bass to me is a coloration. A good amplifer should deliver the quality of the recording and the essence of the recording. It should be neutral. From what I have heard the Pathos is a good beginning. Visit your local dealer and give it a listen. I do not own the Pathos yet but it is on my short list when I stop using separates and go to integrated. It's just one of the integrated amps that sounds good period. Don't expect many tube based integrated to have tight bass. Finding a tube amp to go deep with control is the problem. And last how they integrate with your room and speakers is the next problem you have to address.
