Personally, this is my favorite amp based on looks. If I go away from VFETs, think I'll go back to one of these. Wish I had been smart enough to hold on to the ones I owned before I went B-2 happy. Nothing quite like those big red meters and wooden end panels. To say nothing of the excellent sound. http://cgi.ebay.com/Sony-STEREO-POWER-AMPLIFIER-TA-N77ES-NR_W0QQitemZ280040132159QQihZ018QQcategoryZ39783QQ rdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

You need a silver one to go with your ST-J75....

Actually, have a TAE-8450/TAN-8550 pair on the way that will be a great match!!

Then the battle of the silver (Sony) vs. black (Yamaha) VFETs begins. Both VFET amps are rated at 100wpc. May the best sounding system win!
