Best Amp for under $2000.

My spelling might be lousy but my ears are just fine.

I hate to be a salesman, but I just happen to have a bunch of Bryston 4B ampliiers (250 w p/ch 8 ohms) available for $650.00. they are all 10 years old and come with the balance of the manafacturers 20 year warranty! all have been tested and are in good working condition. rob@westbury.com

Buy the Ayre V-3 and call it a day. On the used market for $1500+/-$100. There is no bigger steal in audio!! Retails for $3750-$3850. This amp is KILLER!!!

I have some experience here with my second true love-B&W. Got 801m sIII, 801m sII/Northcreek, 802 sIII, & 805. Don't even think that you will be realizing the potential of the sepeaks unless you put some massive power behind em! Forget all those light duty recomendations because you will follow the road to trade-up unless you buy heavy-duty. My amps? I found a pair of Lightstar Reference 2.0 NIB for $3600. eighty pounders that can pass household current. You want big transformers & caps inside for those dynamics. (MFSL Dark Side of The Moon). Others I'd love to try-KSA250s, ML 23.5, T800, CA400, Rowland 8T- OOPS wrong price range, what the hell you only live once and youre ears aren't getting younger. The only speak I'd give up a set for would be the puppies. On the 801 sII/Northcreek set I use C-J Prem. 5"s ah! life is good with B&W in front.

Belles 150A. Beats the McCormack DNA 1 on all fronts and costs less.
