Benchmark AHB2 Amplifier, opinions and competition


I just ordered the Benchmark AHB2 amplifier.  
I would appreciate any comments on this amp from users, or any opinions of competing amps in the $2000-$3000 range.
My speakers are the GoldenEar Triton 1’s.  Preamp: Conrad Johnson PV11 modified with Teflon caps.
128x128rvpiano
OP: how is your setup sounding with the new amp?  Let us know when you install it.
A review of the amp was posted by dagogo.com:

Just don't bridge it, or we'll have a re-run of the thread from last year. (-;
Really enjoying mine. I sent mine to Bob at MyTdss and sweeter and even cleaner now.

Yeah, I run mine bridged. LOL
rv, If you were looking for opinions on the amp, why order it prior to doing so ? Lot of good reviews, but a lot of good amps at that price range. What I read was the Benchmark is quite a bit better running in balanced mode. Have not heard one, but believe, based on my readings, it is without question, a very neutral amp. P.S.  Modding the amp will likely eliminate the manufacturers warranty. I would contact Benchmark before you do anything. Enjoy ! MrD.
