Well, not to knock the Adcoms (I have one too) but I don't think they would measure up to a Bryston. Now Krell, definately if you had Krell power, but since you are a hi-fi geek like some others I know (like me) you might look into a 4B. I'd also steer away from the Martin-Logans. To me they are a little too nice and not analytical enough (for tracking and mixing I mean. For after the fact listening they are great). If I was looking for a chance to get some 802Ds, this would be it. But you could always use the ADcom if you got some ProAcs or something similar and compare a different amp when you can and make up your own mind. Adcoms to me are like Peavey. Not everybody likes them but almost everybody has used them and agrees that to get 10% better it costs you 100% more. I like the power in my A7s but not sure how they would compare to real hi-fi gear.
