[QUOTE="PAPPA3, post: 96242, member: 1199"] I managed to get my hands on a Primare 30.5 5 channel, 120 watt power amp, which i'm very happy with. I posted the question because I wanted to know what part this amp plays in the end tonal quality I'm hearing. I guessed it would not colour the sound too much, being a high-end product. But I wasn't sure if power amps are as neutral as I thought. My conclusion is that obviusly the higher end stuff if going to be better, but for someone looking for more power to control their speakers, especially in a stereo setup, a good pre/power combo is a great idea. Get a good power amp, but rather spend most of the money allocated to the pre/power combo on the preamp. I'd love to try one of those emotivas preamps - it has a remote which my old school Rotel doesn't! Now just to work through the pricing and importing pallava... [/QUOTE]
