    Help an amateur find an amplifier

    Is this right? Chasing the Dragon.

    Sorry at the outset for the ambiguous title...however several questions come to mind. First off...here is I think...an amazing discussion lead by one poster on an Audiogon Forum who has actively pursued testing amps to find the best. Here's his starter quote: <So I have been in a long...
