I bought a 265ai from a 'gon member last year. I've been very, very happy with the performance. They have an incredible sense of control (both micro and macro) and produce incredible detail. Even though they're rated at 40 watts they easily drive my dynaudio confidence 5 speakers. This is most likely due to the fact that the Cayin produces pure Class A power. Instand power especially if you have hungry speakers. I strongly suggest giving it a listen. I got mine used for $600 without having a chance to audition them and let me tell you, its the best damn purchase I've made from 'gon by far.
