Beautiful sounding, but not euphonic. A bit of loss in detail compared to my previous system. Sound does not change character with volume changes, NONE at all, different from most analogue amps that I have had in that one regard. No grain, harshness, siblance, just plain accurate. Sounds nothing like a "digital" amp, just sounds like a top of the line SS analogue amp. Revealing enough for true critical listening, relaxed enough to NEVER get tired of the sound. TO DIE FOR w/ 24/96 or higher native source material. Slightly opaque through the analogue inputs compared to direct digital connection (but what did you expect from an all digital amp right?). You will not confuse this for a SE Class A SS or tube amp, but I've had those previously, and am sticking with this. Easy to use and sounds really fantastic, though as I said, not warm, not euphonic, just accurate.
Digitized my entire vinyl collection, haven't spun a record since, I don't feel I'm missing a thing. (otherwise, I wouldn't be this happy) :)
Go give it a listen, you will not be sorry.
Own it, and listen everyday. LOVE IT!
