What's up with the new PS Audio Amp?


I have not heard this amp, just read the review in this month's Stereophile. Class A rating but bad specifications. I know bench measurements are often divergent from the golden ear tests but this is about as different as I've ever seen.

Anyone actually heard this amp?

Benchmarks mean very little. There is lots of great gear that does not compare well against the "Norm"; which tells you something about the Norm. In other words, if it does not compare against the Norm, maybe it is a lot better than the Norm. It does not have to be worse.

A lot of Einstein's school teachers assumed he was stupid because he was not normal.

Benchmarks are a marketing tool more than anything; or a way for a tone deaf persons to design audio gear.
Could be worse, could be just another noisey, highly colored and just artificial sounding tube amp, right :)
