PS AUDIO Stellar M700 Mono Amplifier?

In my class D quest, I had the M700s, which I quite liked. It took ~ 300 hours to begin to come on song. I bought mine virtually new for $2K, but saw a pair recently for $1500, so why give up your current amp which you might be able to sell?

I also bought a custom made class D amp based on the IceEdge 1200AS modules for the same money, but twice the power and a lot more authority. Recently, PS has introduced the M1200s with tube input (why I wonder), at $5999, which could be why I saw the M700s for $1500. That's a great price, but if your budget can take ~ $4k then a number of Gan amps are coming. Time will tell how they stack up

I love their videos and have the impression they're a great company. I also see a lot of their stuff showing up in the used market. I'm not sure if that's just because there's a lot out there or what else might be the cause, but it's my impression.

I looked here on Agon - there were 39 PS Audio pieces listed for sale; though 6 or 7 were not PS Audio - the name just happened to have "PS" and "Audio" in it. 

By contrast, there were 69 Audio Research pieces listed. 

FYI. 

What do you think of the McIntosh MC301 versus other amps?

Todd, the M700s are the best bang for your $1500
