+1 to Sunder's suggestion
Parasound makes beautiful sounding equipment. The Halo series is delicious eye-candy, but well designed inside.
I have heard their products while I was in the US. Then I did not have the means to buy them.
Couple of other companies that makes stunning looking and sounding products is Classe and Chord.
If you have the budget, please audition the above. I am sure there are FMs owning this range of equipment.
Cheers,
