Amplifier recommendation


I have acquire a Acurus A150 amplifier a few month ago that powered a few speakers. They are my DIY Dayton speakers( was my first speakers for a while), Paradigm Mini Monitor v3 and now the new acquire Triangle BR03. The Triangle sound amazing with the A150 but I want to try another amp with similar specs. The two I was interested is the Bryston 3B SST or the Coda Model 11. The preamp is a Rotel RC995 which has balanced output to as well as RCA.

Doug Dale with Coda could give you an estimate to re-cap it if you wanted it done by them (assuming they have time to do it now).  About a year ago, I was told $450 + shipping  to recap my older Continuum Stage.  It was still functional, but the tops of the caps were domed.  Doug could not say how long they would last, but they were on their way out.  I ended up trading my old amp in on a new Continuum No 8.  

@yyzsantabarbara I traded it in to Coda.  Doug knew the condition of the amp.  I don't know if they typically do that sort or thing, or not.  Mine was in mint condition, so maybe he wanted it for other reasons.  There are no dealers anywhere near me. 

@helomech What did you use for a preamp with the No 8?  I upgraded from an older Coda to the No 8.  I don't find it lacking in bass at all.
