I think that the designer felt some pressure that they were being compared against tube amps in showrooms and reviews. The 103 and SA Reference brought back the highs. They also thought a redesign was necessary as flagships among their own expanding brand, which were catching up. I've got dual SA100 MKIII's as bridged monoblocks and the Genesis bass amp/xover. Excessive, I know.

Very powerful and yet with excellent refinement. It was paired with the Dynaudio Sapphire with Audio Magic Stealth XXX and their silver cables and was one of the best systems I've heard.
