Recommendation for new 5-ch Amp

"I have an older Acurus 5-channel amp which I like very much. Now that the company has been re-born, so to speak, I think it might be worth the effort to try an audition a pair."

If the new offerings from Acurus(Indy Audio Labs) are at least as good as the late 90's/early 2000's stuff, they may be worth considering. I have owned 7 Acurus amps over the last few years and currently own an A200(200x2) and A200FIVE(200x5). If I was not so satisfied with what I have, I would myself give the newer versions of these(A2002, A2005) a try.

By the way, I just sold a Sunfire Cinema Grand 5-channel amp a week or so ago. Though an incredible amp in it's own right, I like my Acurus amps better.

Have to ditto the above about Acurus amps. Have the ACT 5, older model now. If I had a need to change, I would give their line consideration. A lot out there, others I would consider, Anthem, Bryston, McIntosh, Marantz and Parasound. Happy hunting.

I second Baranowski's comment....I love my P5 as well....
