I put together my Krell 20i CD player, YBA 2 Pre & amp with Genesis V speakers in the mid 90s’ and am still very happy with it so I kept away from the equipment shops.
Now adding HT so I will need 2 more amp along with misc equipment. I know major advances have been made in amplifiers in the past 20 years, but if you had around $3,000 to invest in an amplifier would you buy new or used?
Modwright KWA-150. This amp has good power, is fast, has wonderful inner detail & sounds warm, smooth and tube-like which is a perfect match for the Five's imho. Good 2nd hand examples can be picked up around $3k.
