Used 5ch Amp (Classe, Krell, Rotel)

I have a 5 channel Krell KAV-500 available for a reasonable $1,350 plus ship.

Home Theater Standard preamp also available should that be of interest. With remote, no cabling.

Pass Labs Made the X5 a few years ago. I think it was 150 watts x 5.

Wow, everybody just started pushing 2-channel amps on a guy who does 50% home theater.  Wow.   Okay, yeah, they have some good points.  2 channel amps are typically much better than 5 channel (bigger power supplies, more output transistors, etc.), but it really depends what he wants.
A slow transition could be to do a 2-channel amp first, but keep in mind that sonic signature could be different and that could kill the HT sound quality (between left - center - right).  If you want to do this, you could look at a really nice 2 channel Rotel RB-1590.   Or look at a nicer 5 channel.  There's a SimAudio Moon Aurora 5 on audiogon for $2740.  Or look at other possibilities, ATI, Bryston or even Emotiva.

You can scroll down to the guy who wrote the Post
"Amps I have known and Loved" He reviews a lot of
multi channel amps.

I got this amp after a/b with MAC and Moon - blew them both away - little more money, but new with warranty:
