    I've got the chance to buy an immaculate Cyrus III amp for about £150, I can make this by selling my Marantz PM7200.....should I go for it? (I have a seperate Graham Slee Phono stage so that is not a consideration)

    Ta :)

    Definitely. I love the Cyrus 3, while Marantz was always ‘so-so’ and nowhere near as nice to touch lol.

    Agree with Simon, the III is a damned good amp. The last of the Henry Azima line of amps. Add a PSXR and it will challenge anything currently available under £lk and probably a fair bit beyond.

    I haven't heard it myself, but apparently a nice and musical amp.

    More quirky to look at than a Marantz too.
