Buying an Amp

[Kratos3]

Adcom is nice. Remember that power isn't everything. The quality of power driving your speakers is what really makes them sound great. For example, I would put that Adcom at 60 wpc up against any entry level Sony, Yamaha, Onkyo, etc., at 100 wpc and the Adcom would most likely beat them all in terms of sound quality in a normal sized room.

Of course an Adcom @ 125 X 5 is definitely better! If you have speakers with higher impedence, that Adcom will most likely sound much better than your receiver's amp.
