I used this amp mainly with a pair of HD 650 and it does what it is supposed to do: it has way more power than I need, it's quiet and it makes everything sound in its place. I have never heard...

Hm, looks like it was finally officially released in the US. While I like it a lot too, I think it's a bit overproduced (and let's not get into the whole DR thing)... Haven't listened to it so much recently after discovering many other great singers (in part through here at HeadFi)
Personally I think her "live" studio performances are so much more showcasing her voice and talent:
Kimbra - "Settle Down" (Live at Sing Sing Studios)
Kimbra - "Two Way Street" (Live at Sing Sing Studios)
Kimbra - "Good Intent" (Live at Sing Sing Studios)
Especially:
Kimbra - "Plain Gold Ring" (Live at Sing Sing Studios)
And even my least favourite track is OK:
Kimbra - "Cameo Lover" (Live at Sing Sing Studios)
But my favourite showcase, even though not the most spectacular one:
Kimbra (Featuring Sam Lawrence) "Wandering Limbs" Live - Sideshow Alley
Also saw on Amazon that I'm apparently not the only one who thinks that... At least "Plain Gold Ring (Live)" was included on the official EP, of course still compressed. It would have been great to have a Deluxe edition with all the Live tracks on a second disk... the download-only version doesn't either and well, it's MP3s. I eventually ended up downloading the HD versions and extracting the audio for a makeshift "Live EP", something I never bothered with before. Hope this will be officially remedied sooner rather than later.

Not sure you can get better than Steely Dan - Two Against Nature cd. Jack of Speed track is insanely good as are the rest of the songs.
