At your price range I can recommend for HT and 2 channel,to go for either ADCOM or B&K,very decent sound at that price.Or you can get a Conrad Johnson for 2 channel like the MF-200 MOSFET power for your 2 channel and use the ADCOM 5 channel for HT and it would still keep you under 2 Gs.CHEERS.
Mid-Fi Amp/Preamp for Martin Logans
I currently own a Yamaha RXV-995 Natural Sound A/V Receiver and am considering selling it and purchasing separates. I really could use suggestions on a mid-fi amp & preamp (either new or used) combination for Martin Logan Aerius i speakers or Martin Logan Ascents. Primary uses: 50% home theatre, 50% 2-channel audio. Primary music played: Brit Pop; Jazz; Blues; Classic Rock; female vocals. I may have to settle for the Aerius i because of budgetary issues. I originally had planned to upgrade to PSB Stratus Goldi but recently auditioned the MLs and was blown away with the sound of the electrostats.
Your help would be appreciated. Thanks!
