Post Subject: Somewhat different route(s)Posted by Gregm on: 8/3/2006
This would involve some researching... thus introduing (possibly unecessary) complexity: look for a Sony or Yamaha or Sansui "power j-fet" amp. These were produced s/where in the mid '70s and should be very cheap now. I have listened to a Yamaha (called "B2"I think) that was surprisingly good -- either that or I was expecting horrible results and was pleasantly surprised... here's a link I found that catalogues these products: http://conlui.hp.infoseek.co.jp/theory/htm/e/hp018e.htm
Or, just go buy a powerful 2-channel pro amp from a large manufacturer like Crown (shudder); at least the asking price will be moderate compared to "hi-fi esoterica" and the device rugged... even a well maintained Quad 405 (?) they used to play their 63 spkrs years ago.
Anyway, the problem is we all offer ideas -- but no-one has come up with a tested proposal, myself included
