    I'm entertaining the idea of parting with the good Adcom 5503 . . .

    is that something you'd consider? Albeit, shipping might stroke from Motown!

    I have a Rotel RMB 1066 in near mint condition. 60 x 6, 70 x 5, or 150 x 3 (bridged into 8 ohms). It has an issue of shutting off after about 20 min when in 12v trigger mode or input sensor mode. But i have run it for days in manual turn on mode. Not sure whats up, but it sounds great. PM me if you want to discuss it.

    I have a Rotel 993 (3 Channel @ 200W Per Channel). Everything works. I had it listed for 475 + shipping a few months ago. I would do 400 + shipping.

    Thanks for all the offer guys.

    I currently have a cheapo Denon Receiver X-1000 but I was planning to move all my higher end gear to the HT from my 2Ch rig. I was planning to use an OPPO 105 as the preamp/media server/player and my Revel Ultima Gem's for my fronts. I'm currently working on trying to get the matching center as well. I currently have Odyssey audio Stratos mono extreme monoblocks which I could use and thus would need a 3ch amp for the surrounds and center (only doing 5.1). Or I could get a 5ch amp and perhaps sell or keep the monoblocks. So I was thinking if I get a 5ch amp, I would get a stout amp to power the fronts for occasional 2ch listening. But if I were to get a 3ch amp, it could be a little less powerful as it would only power the surrounds and center which I know is very important as well but would not have to power the L+R for 2ch listening.

    Keep the suggestions/offers coming! The Rotel and Adcom has sparked an interest but nothing I must have quite yet...

    I have an Elan D660 6 channel amp, but it doesn't sound like that would be what you're looking for. Good luck with the hunt!

    I have 2, the Krell Showcase 5 ch black and a Krell KAV 500 5 ch. The KAV's have had Krell fanboys saying the kav's are too bright and not like the current or previous models but for HT that big old honkin stove top amp is grat for HT, lots of baning bass with kick **** scary highs. Crazy that older amps sounds so good.

    I'm currently trying to hunt down an ATI AT2000 locally if that falls through that Sunfire looks mighty tasty. Never been a big fan of Krell, a lotta money for the name IMO.

    If you're looking for an ATI, why not expand that to Sonance? Sonance's big amps are made by ATI.

    I believe ATI manufactures amps for a lot of companies but I think I read somewhere down the line each amp is proprietary to that manufacturer and the design is different. However, back in the day I owned an ATI AT1802 which I really liked and sold and wanted to try an AT2000 or AT3000 due to its fully balanced design. I don't see any balanced Sonance's around... but i definitely saw the mutlichannel amp on ebay.
