I've got a decent tuner, but an aging, underpowered 10-year-old
amp.  I'd like to get an amp in the $150 - 200 range.
But it seems like in this day and age, separate amps
and tuners are found only among the pricey components.

Some time ago, I recall reading on the net that people liked
a brand called NAD.  I've never seen that at stereo stores.

One lead I have -- DAK has a Kenwood KA80 integrated amp
w/ 48 watts RMS into 8 ohms for $179.

Any comments on the above Kenwood?  Leads on NAD?
Other suggestions?
