What's the solid state amp to buy $2500?

I've been out of the loop for a couple years enjoying my Harbeth C7s with a pair of Joule 18w SET monos. My tastes have shifted and I'm looking for a solid state amp for the setup. System is vinyl only with Herron tube pre and phono.

Go to 3,000 and you can get the a Conrad Johnson SS.

There is a CODA amplifier 20 on audiogon right now and Reno Hi-Fi (http://www.renohifi.com/PassUsed/PassUsedInStock.htm) currently lists a x250 and offers a 1 year warranty both are within your budget. No Association with either seller.

There is a conrad johnson mf2275 currently listed on audiogon.

Any of these amps would work well with your Herron Phono Stage.

You just missed the Herron monos that sold on Audiogon a couple of days ago for $2250, I believe it was. Maybe another pair will come along.

Go a bit higher and, if you can found one, buy a Jeff Rowland Concentra I or II.

I've had one for many years, and have had absolutely no desire to change.
