Hmmm, just be aware that most dealers that have the MX-160 will likely have it all hooked to only McIntosh amplifiers. I do know for a fact that the Mac amps are very laid back in the midrange (and overall). It will NOT sound like your Classe 5300 and you could actually be dissappointed because of the lack of excitement from the Mac amps. This may or may not be a result of the MX-160 processor, so if they can hook it to higher resolution amps, it will give you a better idea of what it will sound like in your system.
