Vintage Luxman L-450 crackle and hum
Switches will also be an issue. Lube-cleaning them is generally a short term solution. As in we hope we get lucky but no one has ever managed to be in that 0.5% (or whatever it is) percentile of people who somehow have all clean non-oxidized switc...

Best monoblock amps for $2000 used
Go fishing for MFA monoblocks.Wait until they appear. Be stubborn.Just checked. Gone the way of the dodo bird. The odd used set used to appear. None around, all in people's systems and not coming out.
