"...a 15 year old integrated amp hopefully in new condition for $775. What a great country! A new Krell integrated runs $7,000."Seems like an 15-year-old amplifier for $7775. Nothing wrong with a little Botox every now and then. I doubt those new $7000 ones would last 15 years.
I have one 17-18-19 year old amplifier made in China. No hum yet but probably not worth repairing, if it ever happens.
