Good looking and sounding amp?

I have Proceed HPA2 @HPA3 for my HT and music. I really love them. You can check on audiogon.com may be you can get a very good deal on it. Two weeks ago I bought the HPA2 just for $1450 retail price is $3250. You can not find this price from anywhere....

Maybe not in this price range but the Wavestream V8 has a look that I find very appealing. Get a friend to help you move it...

Look for a used Sim Audio W3. It should be below your price. Great sounding and great looking

I agree with sheadlee. The stratos amps are unique in that they give you a lazer engraved back lit "odyssey" logo that really makes the amp look great. I have just purchased this amp and I am on my second week of breaking it in. The stratos is basically a German symphonic line amp that is made in the U.S. You cant go wrong with this amp. The sound quality and build quality are phenomenal! It looks like a $4,000 dollar amp and in most cases sounds like a $5000.00 dollar unit. Caution! If you call Klaus and ask to try it out, you will not send it back. Guaranteed! P.S also comes with a 20 year warranty if your looking for piece of mind.

Go with the Electrocompaniet ECI-3. Winner of the swimsuit competition all the way. Identical to their 2K line stage, but with a balanced 70 wt amp incld. I just got one and love it. If you don't need the power of 150 watt/ch this will get you almost as close to the high end as say the Plinius 8150 for 1k less.
