Reports

  • An amplifier of the extra class, even today a very special device, which is looking for its equal. The sound is on source directly (neutral) so what of clean, that one can hardly believe that. And the Wollenweber conversion (in 2016) is still available today, for little money. Simply a dream of the amplifier. Operated with T+A speakers (Criterion TMR80) indescribable. Have compared some amplifiers from today, up to 2000 euros. No one even comes close to it today. People this is music feel. So who gets the opportunity to strike and take. The amplifier plays especially well with a Sony X779-EX as well as XA333-ES (SACD) CD player. The players even put the Sony XA50 ES in the shade. I have not yet achieved such spatiality, resolution and channel separation even with my Astel and Kern AK240/AK380/AK300 high resolution players.
