Has the Plinius 9200 been reviewed?


Does anybody know if the Plinius 9200 integrated amp been reviewed? I am thinking of purchasing this amp but would like to get some feed back. Your comments are appreciated.

I receive the Plinius newsletter which is distributed by Plinius to Plinius owners periodically. In the last issue Plinius director Gary Morrison essentially said that he did not understand why the 9200 received such a negative review. He suggests that the review sample was either not sufficiently run in or was not given time to warm up. As all Plinius owners are aware the amps take time to run in and also perform best when left continually powered up. I've not heard the 9200 however I simply cannot believe that this amp is as bad as Mr Colloms says.

I have owned the Plinius 8100, 8150, 8200MKI, 8200MKII, and now own only the 9200. In my opinion the 9200 is easily the most magical model of the lot. I would also give the nod to the 9200; as compared to the sonics of the Plinius cd-lad and sa-100mkIII pre/amp combo. Though I cannot say why that particular review had the results it did - I can only say that the price-to-performance ratio of the 9200 is among the best of any gear I've encountered.
I heartily endorse Simple's remarks. Both the 9100 and the 9200 are absolutely fantastic. I've heard the driving a wide range of speakers and the have bettered separates costing 4 times as much

You would be doing yourself a serious disservice if you let that unfortunate review prevent you from hearing a true audio gem.

Audition one yourself!
Thanks for all your feed back. I auditioned the 9200 in my system driving Aerial loudspeakers. As sirius@hotmail had indicated, this is a little gem.I AM SOLD.
I have not seen the review article of the Plinius 9200 in Hi-Fi News, but I think it is impossible for that amp to get a bad review unless the reviewer used a sample that was not broken in. This amp is simply wonderful and highly musical, with tube-like performance. I use it with a Rega Jupiter 2000 and Spendor SP100s and it makes a perfect musical match. Its phono stage is also impressive. My P-25 TT has never sounded better. This integrated amp is so good you can forget about separates. I can only hope the upcoming Plinius cd player will be outstanding as well. Forget about reviews go for an audition and you'll find for yourself. Happy listening!
