dkarmeli,
Funny you should mention that about the Burmester equipment I compared my new SIM audio 861 amplifier to the 218 and the 216 and I could hear stuff way in the background the little fine details that I was n hearing with the 861 amplifier that I couldn't hear with the Burmester amps, so in my opinion a $29,000 Canadian amplifier is sounding better than 50 and $70,000 German ones but like they say to each his own everybody's ears are different, the MDCA circuitry that SIM audio has developed is a real game changer this amplifier will go up against amplifiers 2 to 3 times the price and be as good or better.
