@siciliano i owned one for a year. Very pretty to look at. Couldn’t get anything that sounded like live, dynamic music out of it. I blame the DAC & streamer. Had they built it so you could bypass the dac on analog input, I might have kept it and used a better streamer and DAC for a different room. But as, for that larger space. it let me get a Jeff Rowling 625 S2 and Corus preamp to drive my Epicon 6s, with an Aurender n200 and LTA Aero DAC. Incomparable improvement.
It’s the M10 —quite attractive but quite boring sonically — that is driving my Menuet SEs that needs to be moved to run the office TV and a pair of KEF LS50s. So, one of these new mini- all in ones will be the pick, as much as i’d love to be able to full size and get that Boulder 866 or to try out the Atoll SDA300. My guess is that I’ll take the 30 day demo on the 400 watt (8 ohms/800 at 4) Gato DIA, hear how they’ve powered and adapted the Pascal amp module and the Burr Brown dac chip.
