Here’s my $1750…just tell me what to buy..

my old adcom gfa 555II died. I’m still using my old B&W 804 Matrix and I think I just fixed my old Lexicon DC-1, so….

someone just tell me what to do….my ADD is breaking up my marriage, as Ive been at dozens of sites, read hundreds of posts, which are just confusing me..

I’d like to buy a 5 channel amp as my rear speakers are CDM-1 from B&W ( yeah, theyre old too!)

I spend all day in the Operating Room, doing surgery, and I’d love to have someone else make a decision for me for a change..

thanks

about to start my day, and some people might consider michigan 3rd word..

going to buy the emotiva…thanks for all the input…one of the biggest attraction is the 30 trial period…but also the reviews are fairly consistent..

Another vote for the XPA-5. No affiliation with Emotiva.

I would try to track down some McCormack DNA amps. I just picked up an DNA-1 and it is a great piece. Sounds more like music than anything I have had before.....built like a tank and still sup0pored by the designer. The DNA-.5 amps are going for <$500 on EBay.

Rotel has always made some very good mulitchannel amps. They don't cost a fortune, either. Also, B&w and Rotel are one company, so you can be fairly certain that it will be a good match for your speakers. I think Parasound would be another excellent choice.
