Looking at vintage Classe gear, and would appreciate input from anyone familiar with the models noted. Market value comments would be helpful as well.

I know this is mid 90s gear, so it may need a little bench time. Main concern is resale if it doesn't sound better than what I've already got in place.

Depends on the speakers in play. I would assume the 25 is a better power amp than what I've got, but I had an HK Sig 1.5 from the Madrigal factory circa 2000 that was not competitive with what I kept. Running Maggies, Thiels, and Altec 604, depending upon the mood, music, and the day. Also have some vintage electrostats in rebuild that will like lots of power when done.
