Was looking for a good quality Integrated Amp and found the Yamaha A-S501 as a S&D for a good price point and thought I would give it a try. Sound quality is outstanding. I have an older Sony ES Receiver rated at 120 WPC and the Yamaha sounds more natural.

I had been listening to music through a nice Yamaha, AV home theater receiver using in-wall speakers and a high end infinity center channel and subwoofer. But, for music, I typically used a "stereo" setting and the sub.
