Thanks for your comment. I've decided to go with a vintage unit. Would you know how the AU-555A is in comparison to the AU-3900 ?
: Hi,
: Something like AU-3900 has very tube like strong mid to low range sound compared with today's so-so amps. However, today's amp has clearer sound in high frequency range compared with vintage equipment. By overall comparison, I think vintage amps have better sound.

: : What should I consider when I make such a decision. Is there something in these vintage models that cannot be found in a modern integrated amp ? You views will be much appreciated
