Amp upgrade / Did Classe go out of business

Hi
I am upgrading my Parasound  A52 power amp. I am considering the Classe CA5100 and the McIntosh MC 7505  Any thoughts or recomendations.  I also heard that Classe is going out of business ?  Is this true ?

Thanks for your recomendations

From what I have read, they are either out or soon going out of business.  Thats what happens when a small company gets bought out by a large conglomerate.

I think you buy a new one from a dealer at cost. If I was a dealer, I would be thrilled to turn merchandise with no warranty of manufacture support in to cash. Maybe even less than cost, but beware as you have no post sale support.
