Could someone point me in the direction of a new amp? My current one is the Yamaha AX1 which I bought in 2000.
What I'd like primarily is a good sounding amp as I play a lot of CDs and SACDs. Also, I have a turntable to attach and a Blu ray player. I do obviously want surround sound, but some of the fancier options these days leave me baffled. As long as it decodes DTS and Dolby Digital I'll be happy!
Quite honestly, receivers, pre-amps and all that stuff, I'm not 100% sure I understand. So something basic would suit me better.
Price isn't a problem. I'd rather pay for something of good quality. I'm not after the cheapest option. Since I bought my last amp, technology has moved on to such a scary degree that I'm not confident enough to choose by myself now!
If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. I'd appreciate some some model numbers and explanations if possible. Thanks.
