I asked her about it after I posted this. She said she really likes the way they look. But, she thinks it's a lot of money to spend on something that she regards as fragile now. I told her once she heard it she might change her mind (she has a tin ear though). I guess my main concern now is getting parts for the amp (such as tranny) if it should break. Was told that it could take anywhere from 1-3 months on major parts. That's where a US made or kit would be good I think. Heck, I don't know what to do now. I'm usually not indecisive at all, but his has thrown me for a loop.

Like I said, maybe the NAD, then add the tube stuff little by little over then next year or two? I can't wait for her to hear these 2 Pi's though.
