Opinions on the following Integrateds

I may be able to scrape together enough to look at one of the following in used form. Looking at $500 to $1000 used. As anyone directly compared these units to each other? I listen to rock and blues. I did not include the Denon 2000 as I had one for a test several years ago and thought it was very laid back. Opinions appreciated.

For rock and blues, I'd pick the Musical Fidelity.

I'd narrow it to the Creek 5350SE, Musical Fidelity A300 and Plinius 8200 MK I.

I always read glowing comments about the Creek.

You might also look into the Audio Refinement Complete (around $500 used).

I've heard the Creek on one system, and thought it sounded a bit dry. That was just one system though. A couple others I'd add to the mix: the Portal Panache (outstanding, uncolored) and the YBA Integre DT (such clarity and resolution!). Enjoy the search and tell us what you end up with!
