Those of you who keep harping on this amp are totally wrong. I have heard this amp with a set of monitor speakers in a rather large showroom with NO sub. The speakers are Watkins Gen 4 which are winners of the Golden ear &editors Choice Awards from The Absolute Sound. There is NOTHING WRONG WITH THE AMP.
Do you guys REALLY think that Watkins would demonstrate their award winning monitor speakers which go down to 41 hz with an inferior amp that lacks bass?
i listen to very lossy audio (youtube\soundcloud) & could get alot of benefit from upscaling & upsampling C. when I listen to a good source like a real 320kbps the bass problem diminishes significantly D. this amp does not come with a DAC so it's pretty much mandatory.
You came here looking for advice and have been told repeatedly that the amp isn't the problem. The problem is the source material. MP3 is a terrible source. It throws away 80-90% of the signal and effect the highs and lows very much. You must listen to LOSSLESS IE Flac. With all due respect it is akin to buying a Ferreri & complaining about the power when you are using watered down regular octane gasoline. You should either change your source material or go back to the cheap HIfi that doesn't expose the flaws of Mp3
