The 'current dumping' design is a clever thing, using Class A primary amplification followed by Class B to do the donkey work. The sound has a lot in common with what typifies regular Class A SS amps, those I've heard at least. Funny thing is, I wouldn't say the same about the bigger Quads, pleasant as they can be.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
