I am off to uni (again) very soon and with my finances in dire straights i have decided to sell my bel canto pre and power and look for a cheaper integrated with lots of power (and pocket the difference). I dont want to loose too much in terms of performance over my bel canto gear as i really loved it (just i need any cash i can get at the moment). Ive seen ex dem deals on the krell for as little as 1400 but my max is around 1250-1300. Thaiman you say they are very good, how will they compare to my bel canto? Will they be ok driving b&w 805S's? I know that its a pretty powerful amp so im expecting it to drive my speakers with ease.
Any other competitors MAX 1300 used or new i should be looking at?
