Thanks Bastie, that is basically where I live. Tube-Int-Agon.

Going used would be fine for me. There are so many Tempest2 by Rogue Audio, it makes me wonder.

Going used makes more sense, since I just might be able to afford the SLI-80 and new speakers. Will see though.

Would love to get a Stingray, but after seeing the one Dusty has, dont want the "blueish" version. I need to treat my room before anything. Just cant decide which ugly color to go with.
