Builder3, glad you had good luck with your used amp. I’d likely be the one with bad luck taking the same chance. I think my Dad’s many years of selling used cars taught me to stick with new, so you’re sure what you are getting. His used cars came with 90 Day Guarantees, or whenever you pulled out of the lot’s parking lot, whichever came first. Unlike his customers, he thought that was real funny. Even new equipment you can’t be sure about. I was shocked to find the Norwegian labelled Hegel I was about to spend $6000 on was manufactured in China, the home of poor quality everything.
Yysantabarbara, thanks for the link. I’ll check them out in short order.
Headphonedreams, same with your links. Thanks
Ieales, i will pay attention to thermal management and electrolytic capacitor quality. I’’ll have to learn how to do the latter though. I’d just emailed Hegel about the former a couple of days ago and got an incomplete response.
Auxinput, just when this was getting a little less confusing...
kosst_amojan. Thanks again.
Mike
