Most of the major audio manufacturers make a full line of both integrated (power amp & preamp in the same chassis) and separate amplifiers You can look at the directory in the October '82 issue of "Audio" to see what's available and its list price (remember, these things are usually discounted). However, given that there's more competition for receivers, you might be better off buying a receiver and just using it as an amplifier (by feeding your tuner into one of its aux inputs).
