Audio research 100.2 any good ?????

I am thinking of buying a audio research 100.2 amp . I am driving monitor audio silver 8 speakers and want a nice warm sound . Is the audio research a good amp @ only 100 watts per channel , or should i step up to a parasound a21 ?

These are both good amps, as long as there is enough power, I'd rather listen to the Audio Research.... This model is a great sounding little amp,  but its getting a bit old.

I personally would not have put any NAD in the league of a 100.2 either. 

Here is a thread asking about a couple of Integrateds... Read through it, a lot of good suggestions.

There is a Coda CSI listed here on Agon right now.... Very nice integrated.

I made the recommendation for the Belles on the Thread that I posted here for Nesto719 to review.  I agree,  Belles is huge bang for the buck pieces.  The Aria is 75 watts and the Coda that I posted above is over 300,  both are excellent pieces.
