I saw the review in SGHT and in Home Theater, and the area in the review concerning the amp seemed very positive, but both articles seemed to concentrate more on the pre/pro and its quirks. I saw the amp for sale on audioadvisor for $995, which really surprised me, because if it is a good amp, then certainly that is an unbelievable deal for it. It also concerns me that it was so cheap, because that may indicate that it is not selling because it has problems, or is not a good unit.
