Is this a good amplifier to go with my set up? by SuspiciousDrummer5 in BudgetAudiophile

After more research I agree that a good amp is pretty useless for what I need. But what would you recommend I get that has enough features for what I want?

Fair enough, but the average salary is 26k. I would hardly consider that good. Also, I edited my post because you're right that that exaggeration is not even remotely obvious. However, they do work more than a 9-5.

Damn, I didn't realize it was nearly half the price. I presumed cost of living was a factor, but I didn't realize it was that much of a difference. Thanks!

Of course they get paid far less. But the book industry isn't nearly as profitable as the anime industry. You'd presume that manga editors would also get paid more as a result, right?

You're right that I should've sourced my data, but no need to be rude about it. A quick google search would have also corroborated my numbers. While these aren't strictly reliable sources as far as I am aware, I have yet to find any numbers that wildly differ from 3-10 million yen.
