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.

Save us all some time and make a list of features you must have on your new integrated.

Perhaps by doing that you can eliminate some contenders from your original list.

I use the NAD BEE in my gym with Silverline Preludes jammed into the corners of the room. Given the unfortunate placement limitations, the combo sounds pretty decent and goes louder than I can stand (and on a treadmill - I REQUIRE crushing SPLs to help forget where I am).

Why not a NAD 3020a
(not the series twenty ones) more musical than the new stuff. cheap too. Ive had the new nads,sold them,kept the 3020a.
Most of those amps are uninvolving, and after not too long will bore you to death.
IMO.
