Hello everyone.
Having tried out most varieties of valve and solid state amps including NCores etc, I would like to give a vintage amplifier or receiver a try. Needs to be a monster over 100 watts preferably from the usual suspects Sansui, Pioneer, Marantz, Yamaha etc. WHY

What elusive sound quality are you searching for?
I am looking for the a valve like sweet rich palpable sound with the hassle free power that comes with solid state. Something better than Class A. Aren’t we all?
A 15W Sansui vintage amp suggests that this could be feasible with vintage gear.
I have a "little monster "Victor(JVC) M3030 power amp 100w that can be suitable for your needs��
looks lovely! How does it sound and what sort of money is it worth?Quote:

I have a Pioneer SA7800 late 70’s early 80’s sounds almost as good as my Primaluna Evo400 which surprised me immensely, you’re welcome to pop over and have a listen, I’m about 30 minutes away from you
I've seen and heard Mike's Pioneer amp - it's a belter, and really looks the vintage part. Mint casework too :)
Then again, if it doesn't have to be Japanese, Macca's Krell definitely could be termed 'monster' and is probably all the amp you would ever need.
