With a solid state amp, you wouldn't need the 8 gauge vacuum cleaner cord. You could buy yourself a decent bottle of wine instead.

Mojo, recently, I have heard solid state amps which I like very much. Some are nose bleed expensive.

The Dagostinos not only look like jewelry they sound beautiful. The Luxman sounds great. Pass Labs sound very good

I'd be happy with any of them. Must buy a lotto ticket!

Solid state amps are higher fidelity than tube. That's just physics. I understand tubes can sound pleasant but at the expense of fidelity. I think a solid state amp with speakers properly placed in a large room would be an eye-opener for you.

Well, if I'm spending $2000 a foot for cabling, damn straight I'm spending $125,000 a channel for amplification! First I need to get 220v to my living room... I'm hoping this will really get my acoustimas speakers singing!

thats crazy talk
$125,000 a channel...

My $125,000 theater would include a poured slab, double walls,...
A wall of axiom amps
Two walls of axiom 10" subs
A whore pile of in ceiling m3's
And still have money for the processing for at least 20 channels.

I can only imagine.
