from Sound Video Summary: All the professional reviewers note the tight bass and transparent mid-range, but there is a difference of opinion on the highs, with some finding them extended, others dry, still others citing a lack of sparkle. Well, even though the amp is not fully broken in, on my Thiel 3.6's, the high range sounds smooth and extended, with air around the cymbals, triangles, and other instuments operating in the upper reaches. There is also a sense of untapped power in orchestral passages. I am using this in an enclosed cabinet, taking advantage of the low amount of heat generated. Strengths: Good bas control of difficult to drive speakers (Thiel 3.6), clear mid-range and highs, can leave on at all times since heat generated is low. All types of music come across as good as the recordings allow. Weaknesses: None yet. Similar Products Used: BAT tube amp, solid state amps from Adcom, Aragon, Acurus, NAD- all fine products, with PS Audio right up there.
