I was informed that the amp would arrive at the end of November, but it actually showed up today! I have it connected to my Gallo Strada's playing an FM jazz station. The amp is a heavy beast and the fit and finish seems first rate, particularly at this price point; it looks just beautiful. The pots turn with a firm ease. It has 4, 8 and 16 ohm taps. It was double-packaged with good foam around it. It comes with very good instructions.
Right out of the box, I was enveloped with a warm and luscious sound with a sweet sense of immediacy to the music. Now I will admit that I have liked most amps I have owned, but moved up or sideways from them. However, this is exactly the sound I was hoping for so perhaps I am hearing what I seek to hear. It likely needs plenty of hours to run in, but rarely have I heard brand new amps sound this good right out of the box. This doesn't sound like my Wells Audio Immorata SS amp or Don Sachs' tube amp at all... such a nice midrange and warm sound. More in due time.
