Integrated Amplifier with the Good Bass and Extended Highs

Looking for an SS Integrated amplifier with the NAD's or Simaudio's deep bass but with the extended highs
for the PSB Synchrony speakers. I listened PSB with the Accuphase E-470 (which I shouldn't) and since then I can't find the right amplifier. I tried Belles Aria but I didn't like the bass.

Absolutely correct! Similar sound, if possible. 
I liked everything with the Accuphase. Nice deep bass, midrange and extended highs. I wish that is the price $6.000.00, I would find the way to buy it  But the price for E-470 is $12.000.00

@djengan - Ouch, $12K is real money. I did a quick google search and saw a couple around $6K, but they look like they might be grey market sellers.

The Rega Elicit-R retails for $3K. I bought mine used for under $2K and I'm really happy with it. Would be worth and audition if you have a dealer nearby.

If you are patient, you can find a mint US version E-470 for $6,000.  Another integrated to consider would be the Esoteric F-05.

Luxman stuff is very similar sounding to Accuphase and less money.


 to be honest they are much closer priced in Japan seems Accuphase hoses markets out side of their home country.
