Any experience with the Aspen Soraya Amplifier?

That may be, but what we still don't know, is which Soraya Amfibius compared to his Cary's.

Okay, the version that Amfibus heard was the old version. On top of that, Aspen has has a new flagship model coming out, the Maya.

Sorry to dig up this old thread, but which version of the Soraya have you heard? Is it the earlier version or the 2009 version? I guess the 2009 version has some improvements. Not sure if those include a better treble extension or detail retrieval.

Hugh verified the one you heard was the old version. Now Hugh is coming out with his masterpiece. He debuted it in front of 110 people at an audio club meeting or something of the sort. Some of the attendees that had been there every year said the setup was the best sound they had ever heard at the event. Also a first, a standing ovation. The new amp will be called the Maya. I am going to give it a try for 30 days and if it is not my cup of tea I can send it back. All I would have to do is send it back.

my last line should read "all I would have to do is pay the shipping to send it back".
