Just to say, that my door is open to anyone, who wants to hear a bit of DIY amps. I would love to hear the opinion /good or bad/ of people, who are in to that kind of stuff. :)
They're certainly a very different proposition to the JA80's! The extra power really frees up the whole presentation from the plane of the speakers. Gives so much more resolution and space to each piece of the mix. Very enticing indeed. I think fair to say we certainly enjoyed the experience, particularly on hi-res tracks where the unforced natural and open nature of the amps really came to the fore.
Logistics may be a bit of an issue alright. They obviously take up a lot of floor space and shamelessly convert a lot of juice to directly heating the house. But also possess a magic that is a level above their smaller brethren..
