hi,I respect all of you guys,no body is arrogant ...etc.Actually in 1995 my brother gifted me that music system and was shipped from USA to my previous home country and now I live in USA since 2000, that my system is only in use when I go there for couple of months every year,so that system is still in their original boxes.Those Technics speakers are just like new even today.I know they are not B&Ws and I will replace them of course,Coz now I will buy a amp first (separates or Int. don't know), I have read all the reviews available for all of three amps but was curious to know an opinion for OP who really own them actually, that's why I put this post on Agon. I hope you guys understand. one thing I know that I love music with good sound system. take care bye.
