Marantz pm11s2 ???

How much better is the pm11s2 you ask? My friend had both and we thought the pm11s2 was a all around better integrated amp with better bottom end and more tube-like mids and highs....

One of my friends has one of these new pm11s2's and its one of best Integrated amps that I have ever heard. It has the ideal blend of the best trails of solid-state and tube sound....... performance directly traceable to the cost-no-object SC-7s2 Reference series preamp and MA-9s2 mono block power amps. Here's a review on the MA-9s2 mono block power amps..... http://www.10audio.com/marantz_ma-9s2.htm

Neil Gader reviewer for The Absolute Sound Magazine is testing out the pm11s2 right now and is going to do a review on this amp this spring. He said the midrange sounded like it had (Tubes inside) the pm11s2! http://www.avguide.com/blog/sneak-peek-pair-heavenly-integrated-amps
