Have owned 3 Sunfire pieces and still own 2. Current and voltage outs on the front 3 channels give an almost "tube-like" sound with lots of power. Unmatched at its price-point IMO. Service is excellent and so is build quality.

Their service has been good when I had a problem with their recieve. Mjaudio: was the Sunfire signature you tested the first edition, or the second (there's a signficant difference) and was it burned in (it takes a sunfire amp more time than others to run in, and get musical and deep bottom end)?
