Dark Amplifier

One of my favorite amps which I regret selling was a pair of Krell MDA-300s. There was something about them that was magical. They probably don't have the detail of a modern amp, but it was such a joy to listen to them. Too bad they were such great room heaters and I was living in CA where I really didn't need heaters. My wife was NOT impressed with our power bills. 

I had the 350 A Reference which Dave modified, I loved it and still miss it. I wanted to go with the SA-100 after he told me it was his favorite amplifier.

Had several Belles and devoted until this Aragon 4004 mk II. Regardless, be careful as everything changes as it ages. Picked this one up after total overhaul and rectifier stage upgrade by Steve formerly lead tech at Krell for 20 years. Endless power and speaker control with good timbre, detail and body. Awesome and Affordable and with recent system changes perhaps/I hate to/maybe Available.   :-/  Anyway, Good Luck !

If you liked your old Belles what about a 350A Reference? The current V2 has a more darker tube sound than the V1 did.

Any of the Audio Refinement Multi series (I have a Multi-5 and Multi-2) made by YBA.

Here is what I have now an Older  AB international  200 a side.
Can anyone comment on the overall sound of this pro amp?

I had several Krells  The Mda300, Several  Ksa250's  KMA 200
Funny thing that Ocm 500  Was a real favorite

1K.    Pretty much puts out the Krells even the Rowland, id up that for old larger Rowland  I think it was the model 2

Another vote for DR-9.

What's your budget? Depending on what it is, you could buy a used Krell or Rowland.

10-4  On the Dr-9
