Reactions to HP's review of Antique Sound Lab amp?

yes 200 watts is about enough the VTL 450 working in triode is enough power for the Genesis 201 speakers.

Harry says, in his article, that this is a very simple design (tube). However, it captures the realism of the live orchestra or sound better then anything else.. "The images just appear in space"...."you can hear the ""air"" on the soundstage opening up"....."the retrieval of elusive ambient cues is part of this amplifier's ability to reach well down into the softest part of the recorded range and extract information I didn't know was there"

Only some comments. I don't want to infringe on a copyright so I'll end there, however, Mejames, you should get a copy of the mag (issue 140) and read the review yourself.
As I said, the only reason I went out to order this is the review by HP (I agree with most of what he says) and the ridiculous price for the wattage!

Rwd, you are a braver man than me. I have no doubts you will be thrilled. Please write a review of these amps. It would be great to see you start from day one till fully broke in. Hope to hear more from you as I am sure many others are too.

Congratulations! I hope they are everything that HP said they are and more. Looking forward hearing back from you.

Does anyone know what is the percentage of equity in this company that HP owns?

I think Cwlondon is on to something - HP must own a part of all the companies that receive rave reviews. I just don't understand why he picks stock in such small companies rather than some of the very few Hi-End companies with substantial value like Krell ,Levinson, Wilson or Martin Logan. As ASL dealers last time we checked with our Antique Sound Lab distributor he was unaware of this connection. We heard the Hurricane monos at CES and promptly ordered 6 pairs-and and we have 3 pair of Hurricanes and two pair of ASL Tulip's arriving next week.The Hurricanes are a world class bargain.
