B&K Reference amps ... Opinions please

Hmmm... These amps get very little discussion, and I'd love to know why. I understand how they were marketed, one step up from products like NAD and such, but I'd like to hear more than just a general opinion if possible.... What were their strengths and weaknesses ? How would you catagorize their overall sound ? Do they have any strong inherant attributes ? I'm speaking of the Reference series, such as the EX4420 and such.
Thanks for your opinions.

As an alternative look for a Soundcraftsmen 5002 on EBay.
Killer amps, 250 WPC/8 ohms. Class H Mosfet circuitry. These will handle ANY load. Tight bass, great mids and highs. A superb amp with a wonderful tube like sound, and built like a tank. Or get a Soundcraftsmen Pro Power 4. Any of the Soungcraftsmen amps are great. I have a Pro Power 10, and wouldn't trade it for anything except a pair of MFA 200 mono blocks.
