RE: miss the Telarc Organ Symphony

i can only say that the a51, however attractive is way overkill at the 200w x 5 8 ohm rating and near $5k mark. You would be better off trading for lower power rating and higher class A operation with better passive parts. There are ksa 50 clones you can have made to order and the classic "small" coda, Classe, threshold, plinius etc high bias class A/ab amps. the smaller theta multichannel amp (Intrepid) is a better choice as it is not designed with bass extending feedback but is focused instead on the best time domain performance for top notch mid and treble.
Alternately a pair of hybrid stereo amps would be perfect.
