So what kind of speakers are you pushing? Into what size room? Things to consider when shopping for an amp. I’ve always wound up with an amp slightly bigger than I needed, and haven’t regretted it, not yet anyway.

I'll bet, come to think of it, is there ANYTHING you haven't tried/got? :D

Buy something both brand new and ludicrously expensive and pull yourself out of the box swapping rut?

Then realise you don't like it:D

Full of helpful suggestions, me.

Yes I did , David AD audio did the rebuild that cost £380 plus a new quad of KT77's £75

In my system now for about 3 hours .

I won't comment on sound yet as I have more listening to do with my preferred media :eyebrows:
