I have the A300 (please click on my system if you'd like to see the context). It gives off big, ballsy sound for my (near) full-range floorstanders, and I find it to be quite refined for its price range. Detail and bass extension are also very good...I honestly think you would need to go all the way up in price to the Plinius 8200 Mark II to beat it in performance (twice the price), and even at that price point, you would only beat the A300 by a relatively small margin.
