After a warm up period it did sound magical. This unit must be left on. The amp packs a punch and does it with a huge amount of control. After it has warmed up for about a day, it is just the most graceful amp. This amp will bring any type of music to life.
Music is presented very well, the soundstage is broad and three deminsional.
Music and movie soundtracks are detailed without being bright and edgy, bass is very well controlled, with alot of kick. I highly recommend this amp. I have listened to amps costing several times more and this little guy keeps up very well. At this price level there is nothing to compare, and in my opinion little at the original price too. Apart from being particuarly sensitive to running cold, this pair of amplifiers add depth and separation to any recording.
