    Great beefy construction, good power, but the few reviews I've read have been somewhat critical of the overall sound. It uses a slightly differerent type of output transistors, called UHC-MOS. I'm not really sure of all the pros and cons of that type of output transistor.

    the weak point of the amp is the preamp section. check out this thread talking about the improvement with the dodd elp.
