Favorite integrated amp?


I`m researching integrated amps for my first system (either tubes, hybrid or ss). My budget is fairly open but let`s say...$1200-$1700 (used). I`d like some in-put from those of you who use int. amps in your system. I`d also like to hear what the rest of your gear is and why you like your particular amp.

I enjoy "old rock"...jazz...choral, and some classical.

Thank you all for your suggestions so far.

Stuartbranson...I`d like to know which cables you`ve selected to run with your set amp.

Also, I can`t seem to find any reviews of the belles 250i on-line. Maybe somebody can point me in that direction.
Hi:
A lot depends on the sensitivity of your speakers and how much power you need but IMHO, you cannot go wrong with the Audiomat mentioned above.

I remain,
Capt, Try Audio Aero Prima int. out. You should be able to get a used one for less than what you are looking to spend. Hybrid amp with a ECC88 tube and Mosfet for the power. Website would have more info on this. Mine is an MKI with 3inputs, pre out or use it as a straight power amp. This amp is nice sounding, very affordable and a keeper for a while. The rest: Audio Aero Prima cdp, Cardas Cross bi-wire and IC, van den Hul cords, Tice E4 pc, Kinima G1 speakers and HRS pucks and couplers.
I am using a KARAN KA-i180. Just switched from Melos tube separates to this integrated. I really like it allot.
