$0.00 Summary:
THe Hafler P1000 is well worth the money. Although it is not very powerful, it has enough power to develope sufficient volume for normal listening volumes. It is very compact. Being so, tends to increase its operating temperature, but not more than other modern designs. If you want cool running amp, you will probably need to really check out a bunch of other ones. One of the most important characteristics is the silent turn on and shut off, no thumps pops or any other noises. Also silent on wall voltage power loss, so works great on unprotected compression drivers. Volume controls allow a great reduction in hiss coming from the compression drivers. Hiss is as silent as any other nice amp, and will not be a problem with normal full range speaker cabinets. The sound is very good, neutral, sounds just like my Brystons and Crowns, no sound of its own too my ears. Amp itself makes no transformer noise and is near silent. Has balanced/unbalanced 1/4" and XLR along with RCA inputs. Lacks 4 way binding posts for speakers, uses barrier strip with screws. Need to leave a small space all around for cooling. I replace Brystons and Crowns with this amp and would recommend it to anyone looking for a small amp. I would also recommend the P7000 as a very nice high power amp, but it does have a noisy fan, so I didn't keep the p7000 for very long.
