Well she is sweet....lots of warmth and good lows and it is not even broken in yet. I am pushing my sda1c's and she seems to have no problem even at low volume. I have not hooked up a sub and from the looks of things I won't have to. Looking forward to rolling some new tubes and seeing what happens. Very good buy for the money ...well built and attractive. I havent really had much time to break it in yet as I just got a new Acura RSX and had to get a system stuck in there too, I am getting a new job and have to commute a ways so the truck is out cause it is a gas sucking pig. Will post more on it after she is burned in good.

    There is one for sale close to me, I have already been by there yesterday to give it a demo and felt the same way you do about it. He has a pair of bose 901 VI connected and I am in NO way a bose fan but I was fairly taken back at just how good they sounded on this amp, bottom end was full and rich, and the soundstage was just airy and wide. We are talking a possible trade for a laptop I have that is not seeing much use right now. I may just have to find a pair of the older 901's to play with down the road. :D
    If you don't mind my asking, what did you have to give for yours?

    Tell me you got the Type-S (RSX). Those are nice little cars. I certainly wouldn't mind one, but I think I'll go 'bigger' for my next car (i.e. hopefully a Camaro). If it's not the Type-S, did you get the automatic or the 5-speed?

    Congrats on the Jolida!!

    Those Acuras are very solid cars.......And the Jolida sounds like a good one too.
