im looking to purchase an amp to hook up to my sony str da3300es along with a pair of martin logan source 8", a martin logan matinee Dual 5-1/4" center channel and a pair of martin logan fresco 4". I want to absoutly maximize these speakers without buying something i dont need. I would idealy like to spend about 600-700 bucks. I have no clue where to start and any help will be greatly appreciated.

Try http://nadelectronics.com/products/h...ower-Amplifier ... it's a souped up version of what I have in my 2.0 music system. I think it's right in your price range (about $600 or so).
Hmm nm I see you might actually want a multichannel amp? I'm not sure you'll get noticeable improvement at that price range if so. |

There are a lot of really good multi channel amps out there but a budget of 600-700 is going to limit you. I would look at www.audiogon.com and see what you can find used, you will get more bang for your buck.

Well, thing is you've already got a half-decent amp in the receiver. You could try a 2-channel like the one I linked to, which will make your mains sound really good and give your receiver a little extra oomph for the rest of the speakers.

If it were me I would pass on the Sunfire, I used one for about 4 years with my Logan's and it was OK. The Sunfire's are good bang for the buck amps but there are better amps out there. Brands I would recommend would be Parasound, Anthem, B&K, NAD, anything that puts out 100+ watts at 8 Ohms should be fine. |

Forget about the power output. Take heed of what RUR and Oddiophile say; they're on the right track. And you budget is *very* limited, given that you have ML speakers! Save some more cash and buy an amp that'll do those speakers justice!
