there is only one choice...the choice you have now.
my philosophy has always been to use a single brand of amp. they all have identical gain structure and sonic characteristics throughout.
my advice to the guy with the badest rig, ever in a house...keep it pure.
Theres truth in this too!

Well, some great input guys.
I must tell you I was shocked to get a PM yesterday from a member that has a Boulder 500AE and he was willing to part with it. I do believe I will go that route and the whole system will be Boulder powered. Now, how do I get this around Julie.......I am dead meat

Very simple! You take Julie to the jewelers, and buy her a something equally nice, and expensive!Now, how do I get this around Julie.......I am dead meat

Maybe a nice diamond bracelet!

Maybe you have a friend that is a jeweler, and you could trade watts for Karats?Well, some great input guys.

The Boulder 500AE is only 250 watts a side at 4 ohms. I don't play at real high SPL's. The ideal scenario would be 2 500AE's strapped mono.

Ken,
What are the other amp ratings you are using?

The 102AE's are only 60 watts a side at 8 ohms
The 250AE's are 75
The 500AE is 150
Boulder tells me they are seriously under rated.
Ken
Okay.
have you actually listened to a K model ...???
they have the Studio Ref front end, w/ the BCA amplifier ...
yah, but now the cost of the amp is approaching the cost of a car!Very simple! You take Julie to the jewelers, and buy her a something equally nice, and expensive!

Good point Akira! Ken, up the ante! The diamond tennis bracelet, and a vacation in Hawaii, too!
