The conspicuous absence of a review speaks volumes...the HD220 will soon go the way of the Do Do!!

The Apogee's need lots of power and the amp was working hard but I thought it sounded great and I'm not an ARC fan. I have not heard it in any other systems.

I ran it with the ref 3...more solid state sounding then most solid state amps...hybrids suck, especially with 6h3o tubes in them.
