Looking at one of these and wondering what you guys think of them. Is two grand a fair price for one?

    Don't know about that, but I have been researching Classe for some time now, and they get excellent reviews from all sides. Baring any thing out of the ordinary, I expect within the next year to be getting a pair of CT-M600 amps. That should be my final amp purchase in life.
    Lumin X1 file player, Westminster Labs interconnect cable
    Sony XA-5400ES SACD; Pass XP-22 pre; X600.5 amps
    Magico S5 MKII Mcast Rose speakers; SPOD spikes

    Shunyata Triton v3/Typhon QR on source, Denali 2000 (2) on amps
    Shunyata Sigma XLR analog ICs, Sigma speaker cables
    Shunyata Sigma HC (2), Sigma Analog, Sigma Digital, Z Anaconda (3) power cables

    Mapleshade Samson V.3 four shelf solid maple rack, Micropoint brass footers
    Three 20 amp circuits.
