Threshold S/5000e new amp too good to be true???


I've just read the Soundstage review of this amp and it's too good to be true for it's $2500 brand new price. It was compared to solid-state amplifiers in the $5000 price range, including Aragon Palladium monoblocks, a Simaudio Moon W-5, a Plinius SA-100 Mk 3, Gamut D200 Mk 1 and Mk 2 amps, and an Ayre V-5x. If this amp is up to this big amps costing 2 to 3 times, how come I don't hear or read people raving about it?
Here is the link to the Soundstage review. http://www.soundstage.com/revequip/threshold_s5000e.htm

I recently installed a Threshold S/5000e in my system, and I can only comment that the Soundstage review was quite accurate. It's a superb amp, especially for the money (currently $3000). The previous forum comments about it running too hot are incorrect in my estimation. It just runs "very warm" - i. e. you can hold your hand on it indefinitely without getting uncomfortable.
