Ha. Like when I was using my old 1973 Sanyo 2+2 Stereo amp and reciever, I think the damned thing still has tubes in it...
I liked the Sanyo because it was just straight powerful amplification, no extra Dolby Surround computer wrangling. I actually have use a code to turn that off on my late 90s Kenwood. With the Kenwood, I pass straight 4.1 (recoded from stereo using CMSS) to the receiver and it just amplifies...
I know my Kenwood and my Sanyo would blow up my HD465s no problemo, they would blow up my KLH 3 way stand ups no problem, haha.
The Sanyo is better at making loud noises, boomy bass, and powerful mids. The Kenwood is better at making a detailed high end and more sophisticated bass, though I have to fiddle the settings to make the mids sound good.
