[size=10.0pt]I didn't expect much from this little amp, but the minimum I was expecting was to outsound my two CD players I currently listen to: Denon LA-2000 ($30 used) and Technics SL-P770 ($40 used). I'm using a pair of HD 650.[/size]

[size=10.0pt]Well, even with the CV4010 it doesn't. It sounds identical to the Technics and worse than the Denon. By worse I mean, less bass, less sound stage.[/size]

[size=10.0pt]I cross fingers and desperately pray that this is because the tubes are new and they need burning in (the amp is new, just got it from David). I hope the sound will get to be (at least) as good as the Denon. [/size]

[size=10.0pt]I'm disappointed. I’ll let it play for a few days and then come back with an update.[/size]
