Hi all,
On another thread I had loads of help to eventually select some speakers.
I am now looking at "upgrading" my amp (but not if I can help it spending as much as I did for the amp I am looking to upgrade which is 20 years old.
There is anything wrong with the amp that I have now which is an Audio Analogue Puccini but because I want to come more up to date - and 'cos I would like a change - and ideally buy an amp that is at least "as good"as the Puccini - and if possible one that takes up less space than the Puccini (although that requirement is bottom of the wish list).
First question (knowing absolutely nothing about electronics!): how will I know if a new amp is "as good" or better than the Puccini?
How much will I need to spend to get something as good as the Puccini - I have had the Puccini from new (even have the original manual and invoice) and I believe it cost me around £600 and that was around 20 years ago. It is not the remote version and I believe it is 40 watts per channel.
Cheers.
