I am with the rest of the posters that has already posted over here. Try Stereophile. They publish this highly coveted list twice a year (April and October of each year). And although, it has a few additions and deletions here and there, the list is fairly consistant from year to year. But just like "Hifixpert" has said, the best thing would be to go to a local library and look at the back issues that they may have available. While the list is something of a good guide to go by, it is not the cureall to go by when it comes to actually making a purchase. With the Adcom GFP-750 Preamplifier excepted (and it wasn't because Stereophile recommends it), all of my equipment purchases were made because they were based on meeting the criteria that I have set for at the time of their purchase, not because what Stereophile's opinion of them might be. Stereophile reviews and recommends a lot of equipment I cannot even afford. My Magnum Dynalab FT-101 Tuner is another example. They have recommended this tuner (or the upgraded FT-101A) for years and all. But I have liked this tuner from the first time I ever saw it. They are no longer recommending this tuner. Why?? Well, I can assure you that it wasn't because it's no longer competitive. But again, they have their own criteria to go by, and I have mine. I went ahead and bought one this past summer anyway. The rest of my gear is not EVEN mentioned in their pages at all.

Just throwing in my $.02 worth.
