Lonely Jolida JD801 seeks like-minded McIntosh MC60 for voyeur audio experiences. :smlove:

On second thought, nah. Owning more than 1 amp is like having more than 1 wife -- askin' for a world of hurt. :whip:

Just one,

Kenwood KM-205. Probably the worst one here, but it makes noise and it works. :)

That's not a bad amp. Has good specs.

Power output: 150 watts per channel into 8 ohms (stereo)

Frequency response: 5Hz to 200kHz

Total harmonic distortion: 0.03%

Damping factor: 35

Signal to noise ratio: 120dB
 
No where near as many as some guys here. But I have way more than I need and constantly looking for more. Why?:scratch2:
 
Power Amps:
2x Sherwood S-6040CP
Rotel RB951 Mk II

Integrated Amps:
Hitachi HA-7700
Sansui AU-X701
2x Sansui AU-317
Sansui A-M9
Nikko NA-890
Sherwood S-602CP
Sherwood S-402CP
Kenwood KA-4006
Kenwood A-7
 
I think I've got about 5 kicking around... not counting the integrateds.

And there ain't nothing wrong with Kenwoods, my M1D is rated at 125wpc 0.008%THD, all for less than it costs for a Saturday night out.
