Oscilloscopes - what specs to look for?


Hi,

I'm gonna get me an oscilloscope. I'm going to use it to mainly fiddle with home audio equipment, like hifi amps, and perhaps try to fix this and that other electrical appliance. 

What should I make sure I've got covered?

Some say 50Mhz is good, others 100Mhz. I've also realized memory depth is important, but what is enough? I see oscilloscopes can easily top the overall price of my hifi system if I'd really want to.

because ego is rarely a replacement for knowledge, I would also suggest an investment in Williams excellent text;; Analog Electronics - Devices, Circuits and Techniques a decent used copy can be had for $40 ish
my mentors Richard Vandersteen and Roger Modjeski ( rip ) both thought the Tektronix TDS-220 up to the task - i agree
