OPINIONS: solid state amps under $2000


I am an orthodox tube guy for life, no doubt, so I don't really know that much about SS gear. For various reasons I am now interested in a solid state amp (or integrated) for a second system. Any opinions for under 2 grand (used on a-gon)?

you could look at some of the older Classe gear such as the DR-9,10 and 8 series. They are well built and the sonics are excellent with Classe service being excellent to. You will have money left over for any other upgrade, or just more for software.
Blue Circle CS. You can get it new well under your budget. Don't let the low price make you think it's not worthy.
Perhaps, telling us about your "second system" might allow us to offer you appropriate advice.
