    Best SS or tube amp kit <$750?

    I built the Akitika preamp also. I'm very satisfied with it. The instructions were clear and the quality is excellent. I added the headphone amp to it last month. Next up will be the GT-102 amp. Currently I'm using the amp from my Technics SA-700.

    Preamp hunting: must have a phono stage and remote capabilities.

    Lately I have been looking at the Akitika amp and preamp kits, the site has good reviews (obviously). I'm debating which kit to buy. I have a Technics SA-700, a Harman Kardon PM-655, and an old older Pioneer Q-8000, all of which I can separate the amp and preamp sections. I also have a Carver...

    Harman Kardon PM 655 phono preamp

    I have an HK CD491 cassette deck with a bad record head among other issues. The deck has a lot of push button switches, but none of the part numbers match up. Actually I should try to sell it, but that's another thread..
