W/ $200 what amp would you buy?

There aren't a whole lot of power amps at that price in the classifieds right now, actually. If it were me I wouldn't do separates at that level, but hey, you're almost there by now, so... the B&K, either of the Adcoms and the Rotel would all do the job.

Now for the interconnect cable. Joe Mazzaglia makes one he calls the Auricle Encore which really is an excellent value.

Hafler DH 200,DH 220,XL 280,9130 or even one of their later transnova pro amps like the TA 1600.There is something special about that "mosfet" sound.

The Adcom GFA 545 was the "sweet spot" in Their line-up.There were also some great sounding Sugden amps.

I would push my budget up just a bit, and go for an Aragon 2004. Great amp for the money. Sounded excellent on my Quads. In that price range, and associated increments, you do get what you pay for.

ART SLA1 amplifier--$269 everywhere but $219 some places. Comes from the pro audio segment, but I've heard very favorable things from an HFC-er with lots of nice amps for reference. He said they take about 100 hrs to break in.

I've bought a Parasound Zamp ($140?) and an Adcom GFA 535II ($75) used from lucky strikes at pawn shops.

Or are you looking for an integrated amp or a cartridge amp? This is the Analog discussion group after all.

Preowned NAD would be worth consideration.
