Okay, we have four players, five including me. Elizabeth is clearly not happy with her Bryston, lots of those for sale used. I think I might venture Wilsynet's and Timrhu's Hypex Ncore NC400s. Lots of great reviews on them. Besides, I have no experience with switch mode amps. Not that I'm unhappy with my Acoustats, they speak for themselves. Don't you just love the future? Thanks guys.
