| Used Ayre amp market pricing thanks for following up | |
| recommendations of phono preamps < $3000 range I have the Ayre P5XE. Love, love, love it. | |
| 1st speaker considerations: Odyssey Lorelei, Meadowlark Shearwater, Spatial M3 Turbo S Vandersteen sounds like a great choice for you; mgreen27 is on the money. | |
| Used Ayre amp market pricing I think you mean the V-5xe. I don’t have an informed answer to your question, but I am looking for a VX-5 Twenty so if I see a regular VX-5, I’ll let you know and if you see a VX-5 Twenty maybe you’ll let me know. :) | |
| Recommend a SS amp for my new Vandersteen Quatro CT Ayre or Aesthetix will bring you joy! | |

| Class A/B Home THeater Receivers Pretty sure all the Denon/Marantz, Anthem, Yamaha (Aventage, at least), and Onkyo are still Class A/B. Let me know if you find out otherwise, but I thought it was mostly Pioneer who was heading Class D in HT receivers. | |
| Best Cheap Amps for Magneplanar Speakers Two such options would be Pass or Ayre, but both are likely out of your price range. | |
| Best Cheap Amps for Magneplanar Speakers I demoed 1.7s at Audio Connection, where Johnny had them hooked up to NAD amps. Don't remember the model number, but from my familiarity with the NAD range I was able to tell it was a bit older but was not one of the big boys (i.e., it was smalle... |
