McAlister Audio Opinions Sought

Peter is a prince to deal with,no hard sell.His products are not flashy,have no exotic names and are very affordable. Maybe this explains why they are largely ignored by the mainstream.They are also hand built on Canadian soil,not China.Who hand builds gear these days at these prices.
The monoblocks throw a large sound stage with an authoritative bass.There is an utter sense of poise to the music that is incredibly satisfying.
Suggest you contact Peter directly to discuss your needs.
Look up the review I did on one of his amps (75 watt). Wonderful sounding amp at a steal of a price.

I had the 75 watt amp. I was very good sounding for the price. However, the build quality is very poor. Mine came with loose binding posts which I had to fix, not a big deal but a new amp shouldn't have this kind of problem. The holes drilled into the chassis do not line up well, you could tell where they miss drilled holes. Also when you check inside, it looks like a 3 year old did the soldering and point to point wiring. But like I said, the sound is very good - one of the most neutral tube amps I've heard with very good bass, sound staging, and nice mid.
