Hi Davide256
Here is a quick version of my Hafler journey.
I had a very good condition Hafter DH-220 but I had to sell it due to money issues. I enjoyed the music it made and was sad to see it go. Later when times were better for me I got a Hafler DH-500. I liked the bass response but wasnt much of a fan of the mids and highs. Maybe my DH-500 was too old or in need of more upgrades than what I was willing to spend. I sold that and some time later I found a Musical Concepts Hafler XL-280 with Level 1 mods. Music was real nice with this amp but around that time then I got hooked on Class A type amps. I sold the Hafler and then got a Sumo Nine and had it re-built. After all that I found I still missed the sound of the Hafler. I lucked out and found a re-built Hafler DH-220 at a very reasonable price here on Agon. Now both the Hafler and Sumo are in one of my sound systems. I do enjoy the Sumo Nine more but that DH-220 isnt going anywhere. Other amps I like as well that I heard after the Haflers were: McCormack DNA .5 and Kavent P-3300.
The guy I purchased my original Hafler DH-220 from went onto a Pass Labs Aleph 5 and never looked back. I spoke to him some time ago and the only way you would wrest the Aleph 5 from his system was if he was dead.
