Benchmark AHB2 Amplifier, opinions and competition

I just ordered the Benchmark AHB2 amplifier.  
I would appreciate any comments on this amp from users, or any opinions of competing amps in the $2000-$3000 range.
My speakers are the GoldenEar Triton 1’s.  Preamp: Conrad Johnson PV11 modified with Teflon caps.

Very popular Amp. Check with Benchmark when they will have another run made. Assuming your speakers have a well designed cross over, vertical bi amping will make very little difference while strapping the amps mono will give you much more headroom and make the system sound more effortless. Here you will notice the difference! Try running the amps both ways and let us know what you think. When you can get them:-(
