hello, you may want to consider Jolida. They make a three channel hybrid amplifier (1703) that can be mated with one of their two channel amps through the JD-50 (I think that's the correct product name) which basically acts as a remote control preamp with multi-amplifier home theater capability. A 1703, 1701, and JD-50 would probably be just above your price point if you could manage to buy at least one of your amps used. check the Jolida website for more info.
Good Multi channel tube amp for $1000
Hello all.
This is my first post to the gon, but I’ve reading just about every single thread for the past 2 months. I plan on making some steps into mid-fi/hi-fi next year. I’m planning on buying the Outlaw 990 to replace my pioneer receiver and upgrade my speakers soon after (I currently have wharfdale mfm 3 front’s and advent surrounds) . I was hoping I could get some recommendations on a multi channel 7.1 tube amp for around 1000 dollars. I could go solid state but I like to try tubes at this level before venturing further. The rig will be used for 50/50 movies, music. Music tastes are pretty diverse classical, jazz, rock ETC.
