I especially like the HAFFLER 220. It has huge power reserves, and is quite well built. Additionally, it is devoid of all those unneccessary (and actually sound-degrading) bells and whistles. But the best thing is that it sounds great. Add to that it's cheap price and you have a no-frills, audiophile amplifier that will give you years of listening pleasure. I reccommend the kit form. It saves you $100.00 and is easy and fun to build (about 1 to 2 hours). Happy Listening! -- .----------------------------------------------------------------------------. | Tom Levin {ttidca|sdcrdcf|logico|scgvaxd|bellcore}!psivax!tommie | | Pacesetter Systems Inc. | | | | "Love won't come near me... she don't even hear me... | | she walks by my vacancy sign..." - Jackson Browne | |____________________________________________________________________________|
