I would go with a dna .5 rev/A if you can find one at that price. I've heard the .5 is actually better sounding if you don't need the power. I used to own the 1/reva and I still think it's one of the very best amps out there. Very powerful with a nice spacious sound.

The nice techs at mccormack told me the rev A amps will sound better than the newer dna 225 series. A stereophile review from last november called it a tossup. I found that evaluation surprising given the parts quality used for rev A's verses the price point parts the 125 and 225 amps need to meet.
