I want to replace my 20 year old AR amp with something more modern
and powerful. The speakers are KEF 101's. My budget is about $400.
I'm considering a used Apt preamp with a to-be-determined amplifier,
also used. Does anyone have any experience and/or comments about the
Apt amplifier vs. a NAD unit? How does a 40 w/c amp with "power envelope"
stack up against a true 100 w/c amp?
