A great amplifier for the price. I bought it for less that $2000 brand new and used with many sources and speakers. It was a nicely sounding set originally with C.E.C.'s TL51XR CD player to which Benchmark USB DAC was added later.

Connectivity is very good but surely it sounds better via XLR. It gives a spacious, well-controlled sound in all registers after it reaches its standard sub 50C temperature (shown on display by a button). It requires around 20 minutes. When cold (room temperature) it can have a light metal sound color even with silk dome twitters. I extensively used the amp with Dynaudio Excite X32. Together, the pair deliver magic female voices. Shirley Basey's The Performance dive you into an ocean of feeling and warmth.

The tonality of the amp is very correct as well as its rhythm. The amp its entertaining at rock and pop, smooth at jazz and vocal, and scales at orchestral works.

The amp decerves good cables (power and phono) and sources. The digital combination of Yamaha NP-2000 streaming from a NAS and Cyrrus DAC X sounded very good but Music Hall MMF 9.2 turntable and Heed Quasar phono stage were even better.

There was a very favorable review of CEC 6300 and Dynaudio Focus 160 combination (origninally in Polish but translated into English) not longer available on the Web.

The claimed Class A 200 WPC at 8 ohm is an exaggeration but the power is quite satisfactory to drive heavy load speakers.The amp has the grip and believable 320 damping factor.

I definitely recommend it for the purchase with any Dynaudios.
