Home Amp/Preamp Asylum

Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

Is there a crime being committed here?




Until I lug the amp(30kg)to a tech, I'm forced to use this 15 year old pseudo HK receiver. A far cry from an American 60's piece.

The PL is almost 10x the price and 5x heavier! The cost difference is easily heard. No more realistic vocals and band. Visceral bass from the REL is gone. This emergency only HK is awful.

On the flip side, the plastic remote controls everything and it doesn't act as a second space heater. Touch sensitive blue volume knob very 90's.
For $250 bucks, you got 80 watts with DUAL sub outputs along with sterile,dead sonics.

I'm not getting near my beloved PL with wet hands EVER again!
