Sonic_genius, if you owned Fourier amps you know very well what 'finicky' is. I owned one of their stereo amps for a short time. It was constantly blowing up: decent parts quality but atrocious layout, workmanship, and mechanical design, not to mention components such as output coupling caps used beyond their specified operating range...in other words, a ticking time bomb destined to fail. You should have seen the overwhelming number of amps lined up along and below the benches at Fourier for repair! Tom was a nice enough guy but didn't know how to run a business, and Bryan Carey who took over near the end was far worse IMO.
I gave it away in disgust and moved on to Atma-Sphere. Completely different animals. Sound great, ultra reliable and stable. So as your comment implied, you have not owned Atma-Sphere.
