ML 585.5 here. Got a screaming deal on a new unit and pulled the trigger. Didn't have a chance to compare to others, figured it was in the top of the range I'd be looking at and would make it work. Paired it with a pair of Devore Gibbon X's and have been extremely pleased. Speakers were powered by a class A amp previously and really didn't shine. Oh how a little power changed that tune. System is a bit warm but that is probably my cables which are legacy, known to be warm and due for replacement next. The other amp I really wanted to try was the Luxman 590, which I still hope to test someday.
