Also, some manufacturers like SMc Audio (McCormack), Atma-Sphere (tubes)and Ayre update their older models. So, you wouldn't have to worry about not being able to get either repairs or getting the most up to date version.
Regarding cables, it would simplify a lot if you went with balanced connections which aren't as fussy as RCA. Even an inexpensive cable will give you plenty of dynamics.
Class D amps intrigue me, but it seems the jury is out. Some swear by them, other less so. Though the prices are attractive.
