@soix Thanks for the input. The MZ2 was under consideration but concerned if 1w is sufficient, although I’m in a small room ad typically listen at 85db or less. I will check with Omega as they are the ones who made me aware of LTA. Regarding the MZ3, price is close enough that I figured I would just go right to the Z10 to give some flexibility in case my speakers change as they sometimes do…
@jperry Will take a look at Luxman. Wasn’t familiar with this model but recently heard about their SQ-N150 which at 10w could also work. Have to say their website is terrible - very hard to figure out their lineup and of course no mention of prices! Appears they do have a dealer near me though.
