Fantastic amplifier!!!!. When I first connect it I thought something was wrong because the bass was so notorious and the the mid and highs so shy. But you have to give the amp at least 100 hours of use to hear them at full potential. It was a huge improvement to my audio system and I highly recommend it.

Great amp. ,amazing dinamyc with strong ,tight bass and yet so pleasant in the highs.I had many amps so far - Marantz,Rotel,Cayin - but this one beats them all even if some of them were 4 times the price of A 17CS.It sounds open,clear,mighty,full - it is just big excitement you feel while the pure music is leaving the laudspeakers - pure joy and you just want to listen and listen,hour after hour.Open the unit and you will find high quolity parts and first class soldering, a clean and well organized layout - it's just everything of high class especialy considering the price...just amazing.If the unit would be made by McIntosh or Acuphase,you would be paying THE FORTUNE for the same sonic level so if you do not care to spend many 1000s $ on name,go ahead with this beauty - you want regret
