Anyone out there had a chance to hear the Simaudio 700i v2? If so, I'd appreciate your comments on it. I've been checking it out on the net. Very impressive piece of gear. Not many reviews on it (I think) because it's a relatively new integrated amp. It's hard to believe this thing hasn't drawn more attention. Looks like a killer amp. Simaudio is well known for outstanding sonic and build quality in their amps. I'd really appreciate hearing from anyone who owns or has heard one.
From the reviews I've read, I thought the 700i v2 was very neutral, not adding any coloration or very little? This is the integrated I want to still get.
Agreed, the 700i V2 aims to be neutral. I think the word he was looking for to describe the AX-5 is "organic" aka natural, at least that is how it sounded to me. One thing the 700i V2 has over the AX-5 is volume control. It's light years ahead.
