The details on the amp especially with my newly acquired source (DAC 2.6) is just breathtaking. i can't seem to turn it off and hit the sack..feel like spinning more and more CDs

And the bass is just about perfect now thanks to the source. Had been listening with the Denon DVD-5000 till yesterday.

Especially as most sound cards can't generate a proper square wave over about 4khz.

Looks like an amplifier with quite a potential, especially considering the parts cost.
