I havent had the pleasure of hearing any of their amps - just their tubes, with which I am very pleased. But if I was in the market for an amp, based my dealings with Richard and Sue, I would have no reservations.
I have the 300b mono's. Love them. I have them at Sue and Richards right now for upgrades. I bought there OPT Signature Edition he's installing for me. I bought Dueland CIO coupling caps he's installing also. Plus changing some of the resistors and other capacitors. Looking forward to getting them back.
I have the Royal Princess also that makes a world of difference in these amps. I have 105 db efficient speakers though.
I don't think you can go wrong with any of there equipment. There a great company to deal with and dedicated to there customers.
I have the Sophia Electric 126S. It is a great integrated amplifier. In my book, it is on par with Leben and Shindo. It is its own flavor. Too many people judge a book by its cover before reading it from beginning to end. They see Sophia and associate it with another Chinese product labelled 'made in USA' and have already ignorantly excused it as inferior before even really owning/listening to one. Hence I call those people ignorant. Kudos to those that have really used their ears to truly listen firsthand before making any opinions against Sophia Electric.
