Well its the season and seems like I'm suffering from a bad case of upgraditis.

Anyways I've really been looking at getting some seperates for my current (and possibly future) setup. Right now my budget is around $1k but might go over if something really strikes my fancy. The only caveat is that it has to be in silver since all of my other components are in silver.

I've been looking hard at the Odyssey Stratos but something about it is fishy when the creator starts talking about amp break-in. Plus will leaving the Stratos on 24x7 make my electricty bill go through the roof?

So can everyone post some suggestions on what to buy? I've been considering the following: Odyssey, Parasound Halos, Rotel, NAD, Outlaw, Adcom, Crown, and some others. I'm really open to any and all suggestions you may have.

Monoblocks also look sexy. Those Outlaws that bugbitten has are nice but do they come in silver?
