Best Sounding Solid State Amp?

I agree about the BEL 1001, only problem, unless you can afford a new one, the used ones are VERY rare on the used market.

Alephs (especially when driven by an Aleph P) for $$, and that incomparably-high-value Audio Refinement Complete Integrated for under $1k. Good Luck

try Spectron Musician II. You won't find anything that can touch it for three times the price.....

If you want some useful info instead of meaningless suggestions you need to provide much more info. What are other components in your system, what is your price range, what type of sound are you looking for etc. I don't respond to these type of threads because you haven't asked a serious qustion that can be given a useful response.

Second the Classe Omega, Levinson too.
