I'd add the Emotiva DMC-1 to the list since its basically a Sunfire Theater Grand IV and can be found cheaper only due to the badge on the front panel.

thanks for all the great advice, felt like a kid in a candy shop, decided to pick up a lexicon mc-4..felt i got a fair price and with a year warranty to boot--just felt comfortable with the brand as it had served me well for years...
thanks again..

MC4 is a good unit. I used one for several years until one day it just didn't turn on. Still looks like new in the original box with original manual and accessories. Be happy to send it to you for the cost of shipping, if you want it for spare parts. Send me a PM if you're interested.
