$1000 used amp. What can I buy?


Ok maybe $1500. I have always had solid state; don't want to mess around with tubes. Currently a biamp setup with a crossover at 100Hz. This setup doesn't sound bad but I think I could do better. I have a Sunfire preamp. Most amps I have owned been Leach-based circuitry. I have heard some new Classe(way more expensive than I can afford). Am told Threshold is good and durable. Not sure about Bryston, Adcom, etc.

Any opinions would be appreciated.

Without knowing your other equipment and room size and musical preferences it is hard to advise. But I enjoy my Aragon 8008BB dual mono design very much and it might be near your price range used. Mondail Designs which handles Aragon have always been very good to deal with for me. The amp is quite built proof (survived me touching the speaker wire together while powered with just a blown fuse), well built, about 70 lbs, does nice things across the range and particularly the base.
I know you said "maybe $1,500"...go a little more and score a Pass X-150 and you will probably be stunned with the performance.

Good luck, and have fun.
Thanks. I have Klipsch RF3 speakers. 13X20X8 room. Listen to much different music. Enjoy turning it up too!! I am a bass nut. That is why I have two subwoofers hooked up to this system. Quite nice sounding bass. Just think I need a better amp for the main speakers.
