I had a McCormack DNA-1 and a Classe CA-300. The McCormack was obviously faster and probably a more open sound, but the CA-300 was more of a stable brute of an amp for some Martin Logans. My son-in-law now has the CA-300. The CA-300 was much better than the CA-200 with low impedance speakers.
CLASSE - Great amps or highly flawed?
Some love them. Others criticize:
Highly colored.
Midrange nice, but euphonic & not accurate.
Highs rolled off, and given an electronic sheen.
Overall dark sound.
Imaging only so-so.
Lack transparency.
Textured sounding.
Bass somewhat lacking definition & loose.
What's your opinion??
