Came across a completely opposite choice while idly browsing for 'vintage amplifier' on ebay, an arcam delta 60.
Switchable mm mc phono stage in it, which is interesting.

Anyone ever heard one? I kinda like the old delta range, the 1 prefix ones, not the 2 prefix ones which were all plasticky like the incoming plastic front alphas at the time.
Also starring Rex Hamilton as Abraham Lincoln

I know it’s not an integrated amp.. https://www.diyaudio.com/forums/swap-me ... d-amp.html

I have heard the power amp version of this which just uses lot of OP amps to get the output.

From what I remember, it’s basically a re-vamped A60. If you go down that route, I have the matching Delta tuner and Alpha CD player(in all its TDA1541 glory) sitting around doing nothing....
The world looks so different after learning science. For example, trees are made of air, primarily. When they are burned, they go back to air, and in their flaming heat is released the flaming heat of the Sun which was bound in to convert air into tree.
