An integrated bargain?

TAS Alan Taffel reviewed the Simaudio Moon 641 Integrated Amp in Stereophile:

“…What I heard was disarming. The 641 did an immaculate job a preserving the purity a Sufjan Stevens “Pittsburgh”. Resolution and openness were within spitting distance of my far costlier reference CH Precision l1 integrated amp. Vocal, guitar, and piano timbers were spot on. Further, the tracks emotional thrust was undeniable….”

1) It is not easy to surprise a seasoned reviewer like AT.

2) Sonics close to the 3-4 times more costly CH amp ~ bargain

Will be seeking a demo

Moon equipment is a lot nicer than people give them credit for.   You can listen to SimAudio at Safe and Sound in Chicopee MA.

The ONLY thing keeping SO CALLED,High End Audio alive,ESPECIALLY Analog, is what Dr.Julian Hirsch called the "Soft Porn Manipulation" by Audio Equipment Reviewers of the subconscious GULLIBILITY of those who subscribe to them & the self-aggrandizing status attached to the purchase of said products...
THIS is why matched level,double blind listening tests were murdered by the audio equipment reviewing industry after his passing!

Hirsch was an EE. He wasn't a doctor. And he never said what you claim.
