I did check it out @thecarpathian thank you!
I think I am better off with an integrated.
I also admit my weakness: some standard for aesthetics. Odyssey doesn’t cut it. I would have it in my bedroom (if I had a 2nd system) in the closet, but not in my my main rack (or if it was that cheap, that good, I would give it a pass for the hideous looks. (And looks are subjective)
Here is my "high-powered" integrated candidate list:
- Classe CAP-150
- Musical Fidelity M6si
- Musical Fidelity A300
Simaudio (and many more) are out of my price range
@yogiboy I should add that Belles to my list.
