    I never had the jack for any of the "nice" stuff back then... Boy, I sure did oogle it though! I stared at lots and lots of equipment up there on the shelf. What I always wanted. Now, I can possibly find it cheap at Goodwill or a repair shop! (That Kenwood 9100 came from a repair shop, very good condition for $100.00. It would have been $200.00 on Goodwill and $300.00 on Ebay. I think I will shop those some more.) They are gorgeous.

    I'll have to look into upgrading components on my Adcom, sounds like a good idea.

    The easiest way to improve the sound of almost any power amp is to replace the input coupling capacitors (if there are any) with very high quality ones. Since only 2 are used (one for each channel) you can go a little crazy. If you later decide high quality caps are not worth it you're only out $20 or $30 bucks max.
