Hey, cameron, did I say one word about the sound quality of these amps? As I stated recently, I for one am doubtful that any of these amps will convincingly outperform my Adcom 200W/325Wx2 (8/4-ohm) amp. And more importantly, I know that I cannot hear a convincing difference between my Adcom and the power amp sections of my "lowly" Pioneer 45TX receiver.

But I am also a believer in the looks of audio gears, especially the power amps. I am not talking here about those gimmicky case designs used by some high-end amp brands, but about design elements that are directly derived from function, such as the VU meters.

Didn't you know that, when it comes to amps, the looks is more important than the sound??? HAHAHA...
