McIntosh vs. Krell amp for Home Theater

I considered Parasound and Sunfire but no dealers in Charlotte had one to demo.

Any other brands in the $6,000 - $7,000 range I should consider.

What are the specs on the mc7106

Mike,

Thank you for all the information. I ended up purchasing an MS402 and will use my existing amp to drive the center and rear speakers. Long term I plan to purchase three MS501 mono blocks to drive the fronts and center and use the 402 to drive the rears.

Thanks,
Alan

That is where I got it. I sounds awesome and they are fantastic. They came out set it up a let me listen. They left it at my house even though they didn't have a way to charge me for it. I had to go in on Monday to complete the sale. They are coming back out to help me set up my speakers even thought I didn't buy the speakers from them. They are knowledgable and very customer centered. Thanks for all the info.

I found it intersting that my wife who is not in to audio said the second it was connected and she heard it she knew I was going to buy it because she could tell how much better it sounded. My existing amp is an Acurus 125 X 5. It is a good amp but doesn't compare.
