Review 1 of 3
Price Paid:
$320.00
from Second Hand Summary: I bought this Amp on the second hand market.
It is matched with a pre-amp Denon pra-1500 which I bought on the second hand market as well.
Worth every $ I paid for it.
It is in a mint condition, so paying only 1/3 then it cost as new (Israel having allot of tax)
Made it a great bang for the buck.
Sounds very natural, Like NAD amplifiers sounds like. not too bright, not too warm. Somewhere in the middle.
I Couldn't any better second hand market amplifier that over match this one at the same money value or even higher.
Built quality is impressive,
heavily built, large torodial power supply,
and lasge capacitors.
Seems like AMC is trying to get into the big guys market, only now, when they are not considered a HI-named company, they sell for cheap some very good products.
I highly recommend to give it a listen before you choose other brands.
Keep away from Rotel amps, they sound horrible, and couldn't match this one although they are pricier.
I tried the Rotel RB991, for twice the price and felt like the Rotel isn't even half the way near the AMC.
The Rotel was super bright -> sounding like "metal sound".
Mid frequencies where congested in the Rotel, and bass was only seeming to appear only where the lowest frequency is.
No air, no mid band at all with the Rotel.
All the opposite was the AMC!
If you know how NAD sounds like, AMC is almost the same.
Give it a try, you want be disappointed. Strengths: price, value, sounds great,
superb for clasical music and jazz. Weaknesses: non that i see for that brice range. Similar Products Used: Denon
Rotel
