Looks great, but I don't have nearly that kind of money.

There are good deals on here every now and then.

That OmegaStar 260 would be a very nice amp, and it comes with a 1 yr. warranty.

Is the OmegaStar 260 amplifier as nice as the McCormack amps? Those seem completely fabulous, but cost more.

Ok, this is it. I want to decide between two three used amps.

1) Musical Fidelity A3CR Dual integrated Mono Amp: Gets extremely positive user and pro reviews.

2) Van Alstine Omega III 400 (one year warranty): Components and design seem excellent, but I can't find any comments or reviews about it.

3) Parasound Halo A23

Thank you everyone for your kind help.

Give Frank a call about the AVA amp you're looking at.  Tell him what you're needs are and he'll help you make the correct choice. Also ask about the upgrade path of the amp you're considering. His customer service is one of the primary reasons I own and will continue to own his equipment  :thumb:
