Price Paid:  $250.00 from Team Electronics

Summary:
For 10+ years this unit has driven my bedroom system superbly! 40 conservative
wpc more than adequate for music or movies. Is hooked to a pair of Boston Acoustic
HD9 speakers but also drove a 2nd pair of speakers (Paradigm Atoms) for awhile
with no complaints - just very good sound. Sounds better than the Technics amp
(with 110 wpc) that it replaced - less grainy and fatiguing.
Finally, no breakdowns in 10+ years!!! Controls still smooth and distortion free.
Definitely got my money's worth!

Strengths:
High current amp design- drives low impedence loads
Variable loudness control (like Yamaha)
Remote control legible & easy to use
Binding Post speaker outs for dual banana plugs
smooth, distortion and edge-fee sound
The utmost in reliability

Weaknesses:
Tuner not the best but I seldom use it
Not suited for large rooms or rock concert levels- more a limitation of the
modest amp power.
No subwoofer out or preamp/power amp jumpers
