An integrated bargain?
TAS Alan Taffel reviewed the Simaudio Moon 641 Integrated Amp in Stereophile:
“…What I heard was disarming. The 641 did an immaculate job a preserving the purity a Sufjan Stevens “Pittsburgh”. Resolution and openness were within spitting distance of my far costlier reference CH Precision l1 integrated amp. Vocal, guitar, and piano timbers were spot on. Further, the tracks emotional thrust was undeniable….”
1) It is not easy to surprise a seasoned reviewer like AT.
2) Sonics close to the 3-4 times more costly CH amp ~ bargain
Will be seeking a demo

@curiousjim - YouTube? I’ve never evaluated using YouTube because too many unreliable variables- microphone types, microphone placements, recorders expertise, room acoustics…. I physically go to audio stores and shows to demo. |

Will easily put it's musical prowess solidly in the $ 15-20K range. based upon musicality, balance, cohesiveness, and build quality. Capable of equal performance at any volume level, and supremely neutral in its "flavor". Finally, reliability has been rock solid (Based upon 7 years of experience with Trilogy). 35 year old UK company quietly building exception products. (Full Disclosure ...
