Stereo reciever / integrated amp suggestions?

I fully agree with Tpreaves recommendation of the NAD. NAD actually saved my life recently, when it got pulled out of storage to fill in for some more expensive electronis that just wasn't working well for me. My face still hurts from smiling when I heard that beautiful and familiar sound. I have a C317 integrated I bought new in '97 and it was the best money I've ever spent. That's what I would run to if the house catches fire (don't tell my wife I said that).

Thanks for the responses. I am also looking at used separates (lower priced ones like adcom). I want to get a system set up by the 8th but there are so many choices out there that I am having a lot of trouble making any decisions.

Mark....Having owned Adcom in the past I can offer this advice,NAD is leaps and bounds better across the board.I'm not saying Adcom is bad, just that there's more equipment out there that will outperform it for the same money.Try one of the NAD integrateds.If it doesn't suit you,you can resell for little or no loss.Just a thought.Good luck in your search.

This Blue Circle CS integrated would work well.

How much are you willing to spend?
