| Dodd is to single ended as __ is to balanced. I'd second the BAT notion.... having had 3 BAT amps. They are indeed quiet, well made, and have a dead backdrop. They are great poeople to deal with during support items/issues, if they arise, be it a new or preowned purchase. BAT's a class act. | |

| Gallo Reference III midrange COOKED I'm perplexed.Didn't Gallo give any further info on why they did not warrant the repairs? has their warranty been reduced to only 3 months now?it doesn't appear they were starved for power. How loud do you listen to them? | |
