Pure Class-A Amp under $2000 (USED)

Hello everyone,

There are so many brands out there that I couldn't catch up with, so I opened a thread about Class-A Amp for discussion. My budget is around $2000 for a Stereo Amplifier (No need for Pre), could you guys help me to suggest me some?

- DAC: Exogal Comet

- Pre/Amp: Yamaha Intergrated A-9 (My current, but want to update)

- Speaker: Sonus Faber Venere 2.0

- Cable: Acrolink (Power, Interconnect, Speaker)

=> I think the wattage range between 30-60WPC for Class-A is powerful and popular. The production date of amplifier should not too old, I think after 199x is nice.

+1 Schiit Aegir(s) x2 monoblocks.

I currently run a pair of Schiit Aegirs into my Wilson Benesch speakers which are, I believe a 6 ohm speaker with no difficulty at all, 80 watts per monoblock and I never have it over 25%. Lovely sounding class A, first 10 watts are pure class A, balance of the wattage is something called class A "continuity". You will have to check with the website to get the details, listed as Class A in Sterephile. I beleive they cost me $ 2,500.00 new delivered in Canada so you should find a pair used well within your budget.
