RE: HK Citation II modern equivalent?

Hi,
I, like others think there are several amps currently produced that you might be happy to own and use, but I suspect that after the "new car smell" wears off you may have a nagging thought of what am I missing because I didn't get the Citation II. Jim McShane has done all the hard work of evaluating and selecting components plus a few tweaks to ensure the Citation II amplifier circuits and output transformers perform to the max. Any amp that is going to get you in the same ball park sound wise with a Citation II is going to cost more than a rebuilt Citation. If you get the Citation and decide its "wire with gain" amplification is not for you, it will return most or all of your investment if you sell it.
