I was looking to buy something cheap to replace my meridian 556 amp until it's fixed. I have the B&W 685 speakers (first edition) and this amp sounds so clear and detailed. I think it lucks some power compared to the meridian even with the "Switched Mode Power Supply 100-240V AC to 48V 7A DC". It is loud but I think it cannot drive the speakers with power compared to a transistor amp. But it is loud and clear, so I give it 5 stars for the money!
The service and experience from audiophonics is one of the best I had, very fast shipping and very good packaging! Thank you!!
