I haven't bought the Anthem combo yet. I've got to come to terms with the purchase price first. Know what I mean?

My original amplifier is a 1976 Harmon Kardon (45W) paired with a Denon CD player.

In your old set up, when you listened to the Diana Krall CD, was it going through any pre/pro at all?
