used power amp under 1500
I started with a great system and I managed to downgrade it to an OK sound through a lot of trades, sales, questionable decisions and shrinking budget. (No regrets, it's been a fun journey.) I ended up with very low sensitivity, hard to drive speakers and now I need more power. Will 100 Watts be enough and is it OK and safe to buy used? Any brands that are a good value at $1500?
@yyzsantabarbara , I’m guessing if Bruno is involved,it’s going to sound wonderful! @parkergetdean , I rotate some different amps. They include, a First Watt J2,and an F5,a pair of Monarchy Audio sm70MKII,a Pass Aleph5 clone,and a little pp 10 wpc tube amp that a gentleman from PA built,and found it on epay about 8 years ago. And now of course, the Red Dragon Audio m500 monos. I thrive on different flavors! |
Thank you for the kind words @parkergetdean , I buy almost everything used,and my wife is very cool with all the gear. She said one day when I was listening to music,”at least I know where the money is going,and I know you’re not hanging at the bar.” Right then I knew I had to marry her! |
