New Campbell/Holtz Travelers build

FWIW, I've had amps for the last 30 years and little personal experience with receivers. That said, of the ones I've listened to, Marantz has been my favorite without spending big money. I'd suggest at least 100 watts per channel at 8 ohms. More power is better.

I ended up with the new pioneer elite 305 with Dirac and sounds great. Very happy with the sound. I bought a Denon first and thought the receiver sounded like shut but I didn’t wire the mids reverse polarity. Once I changed I already exchanged it and got the pioneer which has a little more power and sounds great.
