Strength:
Superb transparency, 3-dimensionality, "realness" of sound
Weakness:
Requires 2 high-quality power cords, high price, limited distribution Lives up to its former Stereophile "Class A" rating, unlike some other amps I've tried. Awesome transparency, delicacy, and depth. Not harsh at all, but still extremely detailed - it simply sounds "real". Perfect match w/ the Reference Line passive attenuator - produces unbelievable transparency. I've been into some very high end shops, and the vast majority of the time, I am unimpressed. To keep good relations, I never tell them that their "super" systems don't sound anywhere near as good as mine. Similar Products Used: Llano A200, Threshold T400, Aragon 2004 II, Threshold SA-3 |

Strength:
Clarity, realism, price to performance ration, wide sound stage, powerful, top quality
Weakness:
none other than very hard to find for sale Prior to recently getting this amp I was using a Citation 7.1 amp. Check out the many perfect 100% 5 star ratings for the Citation 7.1 on this site then consider that this Reference Line amp totally puts the Citation 7.1 amp to shame. This is an order of magnitude better than the Citation amp. I still have one of the Citation 7.1 amps so believe me I am not trashing that amp in this review. Similar Products Used: Nothing near this good but: Citation 7.1, Luxman r-351, Luxman L-450, Luxman L-480, Luxman L-580 |
