    I have one powering my center, surrounds, and the garage speakers (zone 2). Since it is not on the main speakers, I haven't really done any critical listening with it.

    I can say that it is absolutely silent, no hiss, hum etc. There is an internal fan, but the amp runs very cool. and in the 7 months I have been using it, it has never come on.

    Mine had a broken binding post, so I was able to purchase it for $300. The repair was less than $10, for the price, I am very happy with it.
