It looks nice, has quality parts, very reasonable price, gets good reviews and doesn't have a lot of useless features.....made for pure audio. I like that.Political Correctness'.........defined
"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."

Soo....it's anti-millennial ?
iPhone compatible ?
Hook ups for my playstation ?
Can I get YouTube on it or Netflix ?
Can my earbuds plug in ?
Can it be used with my soundbar ?
Alexa compatible ?
USB charging ?
Can I use Chromecast with it ?
Wireless ?
What frickin' good is it then ?

Any update @marvda1 on your experiences with this amplifier?
Anyone else here using one?
I may post a separate thread... always interested in longer-term assessment of new(er) products!
Thanks. -
I don't have the +, and think at $2900 it tends not to be the bargain it was at $2000.Amplifiers: Norma IPA 140, MasterSound Compact 845, Ayre v6xe, Consonance Cyber 800

Seeing a photo of that amplifier with a person emphasizes the grotesqueness of its aesthetics (from my perspective)

Mark that's not a nice thing to say about Sean.

I really liked the look of this when I saw it in person at Marvin's place.
