Could anybody give me a list price of these intergrated either on the used and new market in Canadian dollars?

Any experience with these intergrateds or SimAudio Moon i-3's? Looking to power LSi's now...but perhaps more demanding speakers down the road (Totem Hawks/Mani II's). This would be considered my last upgrade for an intergrated amp. I'm currently using a NAD...and its about 1year old. It will get the job done but im very interested in the Classe and Moon stuff. I've heard many great things about their Tube nature in the soliid state realm. Any feedback would be great.

    Thx alot guys. I dunno about the totems, but I've heard them. They are very bright. I'm happy with the LSi's now, but ideally down the road if I upgrade again I wanna make sure there is no way in hell I have to upgrade the amp, for power reasons. The LSi'9's are demanding, and since upgrading my cd player I've noticed on higher volume settings the highs can start to sound thin and muddy.

    If my conversions are correct I should be able to find the Moon I-3 for about $1200 CDN. And the Classe' for about $1400.
