Value for money. No phono stage. I am very happy with it. It's sound is detailed and not nasty. Remote is very handy.
Construction is wonderful.
Warranty not as long as Rotel's, only 2 years. Tells the truth about your source, amplification and cables. It can sound thin and trashy or honest and neutral. Handsome piece and honest. I think it's a marriage made in heaven merging the tonal qualities of these two pieces.
