Thanks to everyone for their opionions. My dealer thought the Classe would be a good match for my Vandersteens. I will take your advice and get a MF A3 from Audio Advisor and I'll compare them side by side. Thanks again!
Classe integrated or Musical Fidelity?
I'll be auditioning (at home) a Classe CAP-101 next week. Is anyone familiar with this piece? I wondered if it would be worth buying one of MF A300's to try at home...they're approximately the same price - in the $1500 range. Are one of these generally recommended over the other? I have a Sony DVP-7700 front end and Vandersteen Model 2 speakers. $1500 is a decent chunk of change for me so I'd like to get it right the first time. Feel free to suggest others in this price range, too. Thanks in advance for your help!
