Gary, I can't believe all the work you have put into this thread. I can tell from others responses that everyone really appreciates it. And your writing makes your findings very accessible, like we are right there with you, listening along. I had done a ton of research before trying out the Millenia amp (I have been into this audio hobby since the mid '70s, so I have owned my share of two channel equipment), and after reading somewhere that some compared the Millenia with much more expensive amps for their speakers, and also that one reviewer was happy using it with his $8,000 Quad electrostatics, I figured it was worth a try. Jan was enormously helpful from the start to help make the amp work in my situation, with headphones. Glad you had an equally positive experience working with Jan. I don't doubt there are better amps out there, for double and triple the price, but when you consider size, possible portability, battery operation, ability to confer with the designer, along with price......it was easy to be enthusiastic about this amp.
