Thanks to some very nice headfiers, GoRedwings19 and Zanth, I've got a RS Stealth to play with for a bit. I'm still a noob so I haven't heard many amps. My reference is a Headsave Classic with AD643s.
Only had time to use the MS-pros but I'll try other phones out later.
First thing I noticed is how everything sounded "alive". Through the classic I always knew I was listening to a cd, but through the stealth I'd close my eyes and almost forget it.
The stealth also seems to have better control over the attack of notes. I've always found percussion and cymbals in particular to sound unrealistic on the MS-pro. I wouldn't go as far to say it is gone but it's definitely improved.
I've only had an hour or so of listening since I've got the amp so if anyone is interested I'll post some more impressions after I've spent more time with it.

BIG thanks again to GoRedwings19 and Zanth for giving me this opportunity!
