from Audiogon Summary:
From a practical point of view, I regret the absence of gain control, no balanced (XLR) inputs, and the fact that the distance between speaker terminals is non-standard.
But this amp is nice-looking and relatively small.
Very well built, with 4 (!) transformers and 54,400 microFarads.
The sound is really excellent. Tight, deep, powerful bass. Medium slightly recessed, but very clear. Stable, wide soundstage. Highs are very good, but can be slightly aggressive if the source is too lively.
Better than all sub-$1500 power amps I listened too, and the bass are better than Conrad-Johson MF2250A.
Stereophile Class A, and I agree with them. Strengths:
Look, size, power, sound (especially bass and mids), build quality. Weaknesses:
Lack of features, can emphasize the highs with badly match source components
