I have Audiolab 8000LX. It drives my Michael Green Rev.80i speakers very well.The speakers are 89db,two driver design with 8" Vifa mid/bass and 1" silk tweeter.Considering that it usually costs $350 or so used,this is an outstanding value.Classical British sound with excellent,especially for a 60watt/ch.integrated,bass;90watt/ch with 6ohm speakers.Reliability is great so far; I've had it for 5 years since bought new, no problems at all.I use it every day.Runs a little hot but not as hot as some others.The rest of the system is CEC belt drive player,Purist Audio Maximus interconnect and Purist Audio Colossus speaker cables.I have no intention of upgrading it until I can afford Rowland,Gryphon integrateds or, possibly,Audiolab(top of the line) or Naim separates.Make note that it does not have a phono stage.
