Raytheprinter,
I have had the amp for about 1 month now so it isn't enough time to give the final word on it but I will tell my feelings to this point. I am not a very seasoned audiophile having only been into "hi-fi" for the past year but always been a big fan of music. The amp has a very sweet sound paired with my Coincident Super Eclipse speakers. I have only owned solid state equipment before this and really don't feel I have given up bass like I would have guessed. I had a Krell KSA100s which I loved and really didn't want to replace. I don't regret it. This amplifier provides excellent bass and liquid midrange that I was missing before now. It seems effortless when I ask for more. I know it is still breaking in but I enjoyed it day one out of the box. I plan on attempting an actual review in a few months to let others know of my experience. I am not a reviewer or writer, simply a fellow audiogoner who enjoys reading others opinions and putting in my 2 cents. Thanks Padre-power for your post on your findings. Hopefully we will hear from others too.
