How good is the Aragon 8008mk.2 amp?


Just curious how this amp compares to some of the new stuff out there.

Thanks.

I had the 8008BB, same circuitry. That amp was on par with almost any other SS, high powered amp including Krell and Levinson. The ONLY thing that you could hold against it is that it wasn't a true differential balanced design. I'm considering looking for another one soon.
Guess my experience is just different - I think that amp is every but the equal of the others mentioned. I'm not a believer that all amps sound the same, but I also don't think they sound as different as many would have you believe. Just found a post on the old usenet group that I was thinking of...take it however you like.
