This is a really a great amp It has bags of of powers, its really captures rhythms extremely well
How would I compare it
Well for me it would beat a Gamut D200 power amp in terms of everything and I think the Gamut a nice amp
Against my power amp (SAC Glowmaster KT88) more resolution but the power amp just is a bit more beguiling I think its something about how my open baffle driver work with valve gear
FS £425 which for the performance this amp is at is a bargain
It comes complete with a quality step down transformer
Basically this is the same spec as the legendary AU 919
Price does not include postage it would be quite costly as a heavy transformer but willing to travel and if far as long as you cover petrol costs.
I be willing to demo
Bass and treble controls has a by-pass switch
