I want to hear from people who has had experience with these that did not work out and why,all you hear is the positive.I'm not wanting to bash them whatsoever, its just there are people that dont like them,im curious why.Yes ive had a couple,they didnt actually sound bad,but they didnt draw me into the music at all either.

I let everything settle for a few days and the nuforce set up sounds much better. Is it possible for an amplifier to contribute to imaging? Becase that is the change that is most obvious as I moved over to the p9/SE combo away from my mcintosh. The image is so much more sharply defined.
I will be selling my integrated and picking up 2 (ideally 3)of the amps. Not sure about the pre though. Dont like all the popping and the volume control gets way too loud way too fast.
I think that you had writtne something somewhere about matching the impedance of the pre to the power amp. Can you explain that again so that I know what to look for in a pre to go with the nuforce's?
thx!

Thanks! New to all of this...
Is there somewhere I can go to reaserch the gain of different pre amps?

Jimmy3993, yes the amp will contribute to staging, like every other component. . . you'll see in a couple of weeks. I suggest you call Nuforce about the problem you are experiencing with the P9. I have tried 2 different pres with the NuForce Ref 9 SE: ARC Ref 3 and JRDG Capri. They both have no impedance nor gain matching problems with the NuForce. I personally prefer the Capri because of its frequency extension and linearity, but many will prefer the Ref 3 for its slightly greater warmth.
