Herron M1-1A monobocks, what do you think?


Hi, I am trying to get a feel for and as much information as possible about these amps. Any users, regardless of complete Herron systems or not. I own a VTSP3A preamp and VTPH2 phono.
Also, break-in time required, and other particularities.

Thank you.

Hi Bpoletti, I went back through pics of stuff I have sold and found I was mistaken in my earlier post. The Herron amps I owned were the M1 monos, not his latest M1A monos currently shown on the Herron website. I could find no info by Herron of a model M1-1A that was asked about on this thread so I assumed the OP meant the current M1A model.
As with his earlier M150 amps and current M1A amps, the M1 amps output 150wpc into 8 ohms and 275wpc into 4 ohms, with an unusually high input impedance of 220K ohms. I could not find any info on what was changed between the models M1 and M1A, although the 2011 Positive Feedback Online review referenced on the current M1A page of Herron's website is for the M1s that I owned so I assume the changes were evolutionary and not revolutionary.
I am a fan of Herron audio for a few reasons. Keith's products sound excellent, are well built, can be upgraded for a nominal fee and Keith is just a great guy to work with. I have upgrade my original M150 amps to the M1A. Is there better equipment out there?....I'm sure there is but I have quit chasing the promise of better sound and instead just listen to music. I have had good success with using roller block juniors under the VTSP-3r02 pre amp and will probably go that route with the amps.
Why is this posted under Analog? It is an interesting post and I have great respect for Herron products so my question goes to Audiogon, not the post content.

I think you are in the wrong forum, that's what I think.

Thanks for your deep thoughts Shakey. I didn't have a choice in picking the category when I posted the question.
