I bought that used Rotel RA-04, should arrive next week. I'll also order the XTZ next week. Looking forward to all of it already -thanks so much for all your advice!

Thanks for the recommendations, a remote really isn't big of a requirement. The Rotel is not the SE.. I will keep an eye on it and other things popping up on ebay etc. The recommended higher priced amps sound really promising..

Damn it, I just refreshed the site and lost my post. So again... I think my ideal setup for now (including the products discussed) would be NAD C326BEE, NAD PP2 (or another preamp) and XTZ 93.23 MK2. However, I cannot afford this at the moment, as this will sum up to around $1500. Instead, I'm...

I'm trying to reply but the website thinks I'm posting spam.. EDIT: Wow, so this worked. Apparently, the website didn't want me to write about how most stores usually have products either in the very low price segment or the complete opposite (regarding going to the store to try out/audition...

Hi there, I have been browsing straight through half of the internet for quite a while now, looking for a configuration that suits my needs and my budget (which is somewhere around 600$ for amp + 2 speakers, although prices - and product availability - vary quite a bit here in Switzerland...
