Nice! I suffer from the same "busy" issue.
A few years ago, I found a vintage Marantz 1250 integrated amplifier on a curb among a pile of junk that someone has dumped while moving out of their condo.
It has a couple of issues, which is why it was dumped, but I was able to run it enough to discover how good this thing sounds. I have it tucked away for now. At some point, I will get it rehabbed and put back in action.
