In a warm system it sounds great but I also tried it with my Dynaudio Audience 82 and Siltech cables all around and the result was AWFUL. The highs made your ears bleed after a few minutes. However this amp had great power and control.

I've owned both of these integrated amps a few years ago and now I am using a Consonance M100 plus integrated tube amplifier. The tubes are so much more 3 dimensional and real sounding that I will probably never go back to solid state.
