SS is basically woirthless so you should be able to get used amps thatare about the same sounding as most new amps for dirt cheap prices. Linn amplifiers might be a good option for you. If your speakers were made by Linn himself not the group running the company now - then you may want to find Linn made amps that probably were designed for the speaker - and a Linn Turntable and cd player too.

I have a local guy who switched to Surround sound and is selling his components.He has Phase Linear 400 @$100, an Epicure 1 @ $100 and and a Mcintosh C26 Preamp @ $175.
Good condition, 1 owner, no shipping. Sound fair? I am no audiophile I got the linns for $75 and want to put together some decent sound and volume for satellite radio and an occasional CD. Thanks for the reply RGA. Any other advise is appreciated.
