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!
