So..
After getting frustrated, missing out on the 175wpc adcom that never showed up, I tried for a few more adcoms but I felt the bid prices were higher than worth based on the good deal I had for the 175wpc.
so now I have doubled my spendable limit (commission check came in) and I have jumped from about 700 limit to 1400 maybe 1500 if justified.
Now I am looking at a BK reference 200wpc for 1500.00 http://cls.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?ampsmult&1206913115
Or this parasound 200wpc for 1200

Any thoughts.
I have the rit10s csi5 and rit6 rears with onkyo 705 receiver

I bought my B&K Ref 200.5 on Audiogon a few months ago for $1250, mint condition, and am VERY happy with the amp. Great sound and runs cool as long as you give it 5-6 inches ventilation above it. I'd see if you can talk him down a bit, but it's a great amp nonetheless.Speakers: Polk LSi15
Pre: Adcom GFP-750 with HT Bypass
Amp: Pass Labs X-150
CD/DVD Player: Classe CDP-10
Interconnects: MIT Shortgun S3 Pro XLR
Speaker cables: MIT MH-750 bi-wire
TT:Micro Seiki DD-35
Cartridge:Denon DL-160
Phono Pre:PS Audio GCPH -
I am completely affiliated with this Ad. This amp is brand new and will likely outperform both the amps you've suggested on your list. $1,100 with Polk Member Discount
