Hi Sean,

Try to audition the Cary Cinema A-5. It is 125 watts per channel and retail for $4000.00. This is a killer amp. considering the price and the performance.For two channel music....... I would say just audition and you will hear it with your own ears..... it is pure music. Thanks
EAD Powermasters make fine 2 channel or 5 channel amps. The Powermaster 2000 if you need 400watts x 5 channels and balanced inputs, the Powermaster 1000, if you can live with 200watts x 5 channels (really amounts to alot more into 2 channels) and can live without balanced inputs. BIG differences in prices ($7200 vs $3300), and they sound basically the same. Better than most of the amps on your list, and as good as the best of them (Pass, Krell, Classe, Bryston)
