Magnus Ma 300 how good is it?

The Magnus Ma 300 has got a fantastic review from enjoythemusic. It is supposed to compete with amps up to usd 50000,- All what is sayd in the test makes it so attratactive; so anyone who know it and could describe how good it is compared to other amps; re Lamm, Boulder, Soulution, Spectral....

But why; it has more than enough power and is dead quiet through the speakers
1. More shipping options < 150#
2. Eventhough I'm a body builder and in good physical condition, it's a 2 men job in moving amps > 125#. If it's a barbell, I can lift 300#+ :-)
3. I have a large room and with monos, I can run shorter SCs

I put it on a rug and dragged it in the box down the stairs, i also managed to dip it out of the box but it was a hell of a job! so i see your point!!!

But it plays so good, i change my set up from mono to stereo and buy new longer speaker cables..........

Porselen,

Weight lifting belts, Rugs, furniture dolly and hand truck with stairs option are must for Audiophiles. It great for moving amps and my new speakers last week. :-)

So what other amps beside Lamm 1.2 have you compared the Magnus to? Is it warm like the Lamm or more neutral?

Amp. Is a litle more on the neutral side than the lamms, more damping factor and more resolved

Still happy with the Magnus ? What speakers are you using it with ? I was thinking about the 1.2's recently and saw the Magnus Ma 300, any comments are appreciated.
