It would be very interesting to ask the members who responded to this thread in the very beginning in 2004, if they still have the amps they recommended then today! As for me, I've always bought equipment I liked and just held onto it, not because I thought it was the best but because I liked it. I still have my first amp and speakers, a Yamaha CA-600 and Pioneer HPM-40's, and have enough equipment for four systems lol. So for me, I guess the answer is I will have all of them for life!
