Price Paid:
$400.00 Summary:
This is a great amp, it never seems to run out of steam. It's far more powerful and dynamic than it's 70w rating suggests and it always sounds authorative and under contol. I wouldn't call this amp cold sounding, it just doesn't warm every thing up the way old arcams used to. It has excellent timing and dynamics sounding exciting and detailed. It's excellent playing fast rock and dance music, but it has more than enough finesse for jazz and classical. Personally, I've never found it too bright or harsh either, I suppose that could depend what you partner it with. I run mine with an Arcam cd 92 player and mission 780s with an MJ pro 100 sub. It sounds fantastic and for the £400 I paid for mine in a closing sale, it's an absolute bargain. Did I also mention is really nicely built with simple yet classy looks. Great amp. Strengths:
Power, dynamics, control, excitement, detail, build. Weaknesses:
Won't turn everything you own into easy listening wallowing warmth.
