Which Amp

[sy_lu]

Krell is a better amp than the ATI. More refined sound and possibly better current control too. If you can afford it, take the Krell.

Krell unfortunately is grossly overpriced for what you get. Personally with $3000.00 I would seriously buy a Bryston 3b which is a 2 channel amp which would drive the rear and the 6BSST which would drive your front three channels as it is a 3 channel amp.

In fact the 6b may be all you need. Your receiver's MAIN power could then drive the rear channels. The Brystons simply are about as good as Solid state can get from a technical standpoint if your goal ois to drive a difficult speaker.

20 year wrranty transferable - but more important they've been around long enough that the warranty holds merit. And they are not ridiculously priced. http://www.bryston.ca/6bsst_m.html
