    Neither does it have 150 watts output. Acoustic levels that high would probably be fatal.

    To be fair to the seller I think the description was generated by eBay...I hate it when it does that and never use their descriptions...

    I was referring to the acoustic output. Not the power handling. They, by mistake of course, imply it is 150 watts.

    One acoustic watt from a speaker is equal to around 108db @ 1m!

    So it is. I missed that. Not paying attention again .

    Price is right then. You will not find a power amp to touch these for that money.

    If I hadn't already got two I'd have this immediately, even if it made me skint for a month.

    I have other amps, but the SM-70 Pro sounds unbelievably good on the end of my TVC pre-amp, driving the big Tannoys. Rich, clean, transparent, pure Class A. Lovely! Plenty of grip and punch too. If you got that sort of sound quality for £5000, you wouldn't complain.
