Best Multi channel amp under $2,000 used or new

EAD powermaster 1000

Fringe idea:
Outlaw 7500 5x200 for about 1600 or

5 @ M2200 which is there monobloc. This is also about 200 watts.
Balanced inputs here, too. <300$ per when buying a bunch.

Flemke and Megfan-thanks for the suggstions.

Parasound 2205 any version is a great great amp for the money and easily competes with others that are way more expensive. This amp has a very nice sound, great bass with plenty of power when its needed. In my opinion its a classic and one to hold on too!!!!! SR65

Anthem A series. They have a very fast and smooth personality. Destroyed the Adcom that I had. It is Much more pleasing to listen to for long periods. I also had an NAD218 that was fantastic but limited due to being a 2 channel amp. I wanted to match my front sound stage. The Anthem Gives me most of what the 218 had. A little better on top but a little shyer bass.

I have also heard Parasond, Rotel,and B&K amps in this price range. I would prefer the Anthem.
