I'm surprised more people aren't talking about this amp. I ordered one from Apos earlier this week and should have it sometime next week (if they would ship it already). The A50s use much of the same architecture as the A90 at less than half the price and a smaller form factor which I like, plus I already use the D50s as one of my main dacs so why not complete the stack. At 3.5 watts into 32ohms balanced, they have plenty of power for most headphones so I would think there'd at least a few people on here that would be getting one. I'll definitely post my impressions when I get it and see how it compares to my SMSL SP200 THX amp which it measures better than, and I know that doesn't mean it will sound better but the pink panther from ASR sure seemed to like in his measurement and review he did.

I ordered the A50 and returned it. I ordered the A50s after reading the review on ADR and 15% off at the time also help. It is pretty good, very quiet. It is different from my WA7 head tube amp in a good way. I will keep this one. I am listening with the Audeze lcd-2.
