Everything in audio is of course subjective because we are all a bit different. I bave Plinius amplification in two systems. I have tried many different amplifiers but I do not get the full rounded sound from other amps as compared to my Plinius. They maybe good amps with great detail and sound stage but to me they lack the full rounded balance of sound that I get with Plinius gear. what I mean is that across the frequency spectrum they are very balanced and full sounding. Perhaps slightly warm but detailed as well. Thatvto me is musicality.
