In reply to:
Are you sure your eyes didn't contribute to the difference? You did start drooling before the demo even started...
I knew in my mind that it should be good when I saw the Mc stuff but I wasn't prepared for what I heard-WOW!!! I told the salesman/friend that if I buy my TV from him that he would have to agree to allow me to watch an entire movie in their theater in return. He just laughed and said "I'll see what I can do" but I was dead serious.

That's a tough one! Some Sci-fi or Action/Adventure for sure. But then again many Disney/Pixar movies have great sound too. Any suggestions?

Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring Extended version in DTS. You'll get to enjoy that room for 3+ hours with one of the greatest adventure movies ever made.

As the proud owner of the Stratos all I can say is you have made a good choice. I tried Parasound, Bryston, Rotel and just about everything before going with Klaus and I have no regrets. One thing though that I know you have heard by now is the break-in. It is a long time, so be ready for it! This amp sounds very different (Better) after a few weeks. Be patient and wait for it. I'm currently running a set of M80's with it.........and I'm in heaven!
Oh yeah, Hi everybody. I have been reading here for months and finally got around to registering! My current system in case your curious is:
Onyko TX-SR800 Receiver
Odyssey Stratos - 2 Channel Amp
Odyssey Stratos HT3 - 3 Channel Amp (On order)
Denon DVM 3800 DVD/DVDA Player
Integra DRS 5.2 DVD Player
All the above except the Stratos is running through a Monster Cable 3500 line conditioner.
Axiom M80's
Axiom VP150
Axiom QS8's Main Surround
Axiom M22's Secondary Surround EX
Boston Acoustics VR500 Subwoofer. Soon to be replaced with a SVU.

Spiffnme,
You've got your work cut out for you. Your mission -- should you choose to accept it -- is to report on whether or not the amp's sound changes after the allegedly necessary break-in period.
