so ive had a Lepai 168ha for a couple years, and im starting to not like the sound of it and the fact that it can only push 40W. im not quite sure what to get I would like to get something rack mountable and somewhere about 100W a channel. I know you guys are mostly headphone people but there's probably a few of you that can help?

What about just a regular HT receiver? 

ya that would work if its small enough. I don't have enough room on my desk for a receiver so if its about the size of u1 rack or smaller I can work with it

Buying Pyle products is a risky endeavor.

'good' and 'cheap' don't usually mix well together.

 

Even Lepai is renowned as producing the only good bang for buck on its A2020+. Other Lepai products are reported as 'meh' at best.

What speakers are you using and how much are you willing to spend?

suggestions?

Sony, Yamaha and/or Sherwood sometimes sell their stereo receivers at this price. Do check online dealers.
