I just read the review. For the price it seems like a steal. My big things is the single ended class A circuitry. I would imagine it is sweet. Funny, I just asked about it & an ad came on Agon today I think. I wonder when more equipment will be coming out w. a similar topology. I was actually looking at some Luxman or Accuphase equipment. I just don't find American quality to be at the same level of Japanese in Solid State equipment.
