Thanks for helping guys!

+ 1 billion to the classifieds suggestion. Lots of reputable folks here on TB. You can find a gently used amp for about half of what you would pay new or you can get twice as much amp for the same money 
Don't let the whole "used" thing hold you back. Much of the gear you find in the classifieds is in better shape than the stuff on display at GC.
