Agree with Dave_b's assessment.
audio research vt200 or Reference 110
I have for 10 years now the VT200 and I'm satisfied with the sound and power. I one the ref2 mk2 with vintage tubes. Last week I put the CD 8 in the system and this blew me away even after 200 hours of breaking in. Now I like to change the VT200 for the REf 110. Wil this be a major improvement and worth the money.
