Hi. limniscate I 'm very happy to hear that you are buying a pair of

veritas monoblocks, my friend you are going to love them, speaking from my own experience nothing compare. I have try most of the major

brand of amps from digital to to A&B to monoblocks, and I can tell you with 100% certainty  that  none of them has been able to provide

my musical need, that search ended when I contact my dear friend

Merrill. I ask him if he would be willing to send me a pair of veritas monoblocks and he agree, my first impression was wow, soundstage

deep deep base with total control of my dynaudio contour 5.4 speakers musical beyond believe micro details and every thing that an audiophile can ask for  is there and more. I highly recommend that you listen to the Christine pre- amp  from Merrill, it is and amazing piece of equipment, beautiful sound among the best of the best, good lock with your veritas I know you are going to love them

Best regards Juan.

Merrill has been amazing to deal with. I need to conduct some more testing, but my initial impression and observations between the Magtech and the Veritas are that (1) the Veritas is quieter--both the unit itself and through the speakers. There's no tube hiss from my Audio Research Ref5SE. (2) The Veritas may be a hair more detailed with slightly better imaging. (3) The Veritas is more forward in the mids and highs and thus brighter. It's interesting that both amps are typically described as neutral because the Magtech sounds more laid back to me. As of now, I prefer the Magtech but will report back after more listening.

limniscate ...I would not be to critical of the Veritas monoblocks until you have substantial burn in time on them. It takes a decent amount of time before the party gets started...
