i am looking at one locally. I have never heard one before. From what the seller is saying it is the same as a bryston 8 Best. I would use it in 2 ch. mode and do not have a need to the 4 ch mode. ( unless i put 2 to the highs and 2 to the lows on the Sada's.)

I have heard good things about it but never heard one. Anyone have any experience with this amp?

Looking for a replacement for my McINtosh 2105.

    Yes it is identical internally to a Bryston 8ST,which is basically two 3B's in one chassis. I have a 3B.

    btw.you will not be able to use it in 2 channel(bridged mode)with SDA's.

    Bridging will make it non common ground which would make it incompatable with SDA's.

    Sure if the speakers have two sets of binding posts.
