Best Integrated, period.

Anyone heard the new ModWright KWI 200 Integrated yet? For starters, looks nice and has plenty of power.

Add Rega Osiris, another reference level int amp

Some others not mentioned that may be worth looking into.

Magnum Dynalab MD 309. This is a hybrid design. This one at least one great review.

Hegel H200. This one was the TAS component of the year for 2011.

Chapter Audio Precis 250S- compact nice looking. Has a class D amplification stage.

Leema Acoustics Element.

Canor Audio TP 106 VR- This is another nice look integrated and is hybrid design. They use the 6550 tubes.

Anyone heard the above integrated amps?

I had auditioned the Magnum Dynalab MD 309 in my home for 10 days, as I had a friend who owned it and he ''insisted'' I try it out.

Well, to keep things polite, Magnum should stick to tuners.And since tuners are pretty much ''out'' - what is for them to do except try to expand in other (and new to them) directions? This is about as far-removed as I can get from my idea of the best integrated out there.

The light show looks kind of ridiculous, while I found the sound to be sterile and not involving, unfortunately. For the price, ouch! Who are we kidding here?

What about the Lindemann 885 Integrated Power Amplifier?

The 885 amp is comprised of two entirely separate amplifiers which are housed together in one unit. The only connection between the two channels is at the power socket. Each channel is equipped with a 500-watt transformer all of its own. The amplifier is a fully balanced stereo integrated amplifier with dual mono supplies. I believe the price is about $11,900.

I have never heard this unit but it looks very interesting (except for the price). Any comments?
