Hi, this is my first post but have been following the AV Forum for some time and have been impressed by how helpful everyone is around here ... I recently picked up a pair of Mission 751 speakers and wondered if anyone has any thoughts on the best amp to pair with these?
I have them hooked up to my iMac via a Yamaha A-320 amp. I'm very happy indeed with the speakers, but the amp is not in the best condition and the volume control crackles loudly when adjusted etc. It works, but doesn't feel like the best quality amp out there.
I've heard good things about the early Cyrus amps (the one and two) and wondered what gains I could realistically expect from changing the amp. I guess my immediate budget would be around £150 for something second hand, but could put more towards it if necessary.
Any advice would be most welcome!
** Not sure if this is the right category for this post. It's a question about amps but relates to my choice of speaker, so might be better suited here. I posted on the amp forum, but didn't get any replies.
