Ok, after reading all of the posts. I like to thank you for all the comments. I went with the Mcintosh MC2000 Amp and C2200 Preamp. I know is a big jump from my original intention. I am currently saving for the B&W speakers either 802D or 803D. I probably lean more to the 802D but that mean little longer waiting time to save enough $$$ for that. While I waiting for my saving to grow. What is the recommend speaker wires for my system. Also what is the recommending surge protector or conditioner do I need. I am use to be an electrician myself so surge protector is a requirement for me. As for power conditioner is not that critical because I already have dedicated line to the system.
