Thanks for sharing your experience.
I bought a 5004 8 years ago to replaceca nad 315bee. Returned it because of the laid back sound with no dynamics.
Ordered the 8004, and toroidal transformer and extra power made all the difference in the world.
This 8004 has been on 24/7 for the past 8 years and does best with neutral to brighter speakers like ls50s, totem hawk, ub5s.. .i would not marry it with warm speakers.
