[ric888]

hi guy's,

I was hoping if anybody here had a chance of using the H/K integrated amps with the 600 series. I got a good deal with this integrated/amp (brand new) and was planning of mating it with my 602's?

Common guy's...

donsent anybody here had a chance of experiencing this integrated amp?

i'm about to purchase it later, just need some advise.

PLEASE!!!

I've never used that speaker, or amplifier, but I suspect it will work fine.
HK usually makes pretty decent amps.
Judging from the specs you could do both better and worse. Should be fine though, especially if the price is right ;-)

Edit: Have you done a google search for reviews on the amp?

[ric888]

actually yes dknightd,

and nothing comes up... the price for this one is only $300 brand new. do you think i should go with it? or better go with a second hand integrated from a more reputable name, say, krell? also sells about $300 though its an old model. but has more power based from specs. 100W x 2.

I'm reluctant to tell people what they should buy. But if is was me I'd probably jump on the krell at $300.
