Used amp recommendation

There is a Classe 15 listed here for $990. I owned that amp years ago and it was outstanding. Grab it before someone else does!

I had an Acurus that was unreliable, but then so was my cousin Shirley.

Thanks for all the great input.  Ended up going with a Macintosh MC2205.  

Assuming you want to stick with SS amps, then you should put Bryston on your "possibles" list. They are fine amps, have a transferrable 20-year warranty so you are covered should the amp need repair, and they provide unparalled customer service.

My suggestion also would be to get the "matching" Aragon 4004, 8008ST, or 8008BB.

Speaking of Acurus, I have owned 12 Acurus amps and none have ever had any issues at all.  All dead quiet.
