Also, I can't believe my first post is pointing someone to an amp that I might bid on. Oh well, should save me some money.No fear; not a tube guy!
I would suggest a Luxman integratedI would LOVE a Luxman, but they're TDE (too danged expensive). :)
And Bill...thanks so much for your advice. I bet that Yamaha pair is NICE!!
I did see a "scratch & dent Denon 1600 for a good price on Crutchfield today. I've bought lots of open box and refurbished but never a scratch & dent. I don't think I want to go down that path.
