Writing a "balanced" review is one thing. I am never modest but I don't lie - see my Rudistor RP5 review if you want to know what a "balanced" review should be like. There are always pluses and minuses for every product out there. A good review exposes the negatives as well as the positive.
Unfortunately - no disrespect to you - but your review is simply an advertisement from the looks of it. OMG OMG this amp is the best...everything else is inferior...
Tell me Sov - what other amps have you heard that allows you to make such a sweeping statement?
I am willing to put my money down and say that the RP33 cannot hang with the better amps out there...why? because this review has no balance to it and is a shameless plug IMO.
How about sending it to someone who can bring out what this amp can really do...AND what it cannot do...and how it fares when compared to amps in the similar price range.

Guru this is not a review, neither balanced, nor unbalanced, and I really wish to have the capability of doing such a review as the RP33 would deserve, but is curious, that anything that is not coming from you, or that you have not heard, is not right, or maybe has problems, and is wrong to you, right? This is just my first impressions, based in my extremely limited experience, I have not the vast experience and knowledge you have in this field, and I apologize if I came across that way.
But let me tell you something and with all due respect, I don't care a rat ass of what you think of my posts, and for your information my ignore list is now empty, but I think that you will be a really tempting candidate to be the first on it, man, because your arrogance has only one comparison here in the forum (and we probably know who the other is, but at least that other guy is a brilliant professional, and you don't even that)......
But before, and because I respect the members of this forum, and I think that they deserve an explanation, I will tell you this guys, I have heard
SOME of the more reviewed and raved amps here, and some of the best sounding amps out there, and more expensive amps, not extensively, but enough to conclude that the RP33 is a nice sounding amp, if you want to believe it, it is fine with me, if not it is fine with me also, no problems, just go and get the Dyna-hi Guru is selling, or an HR-2, or a PreHead, and be happy...But just get a good amp OK? Because I know that the RP33 will give you things, and a performance that I was missing in my prior experiences, it is indeed the best
I HAVE HEARD period. But I never said that the amp is the best of the market, as I have not heard all of them (neither you) Those were just my first impressions on a field that I'm a beginner...
BTW it is very possible, that any other good amp, could sound similar or even better to the RP33, just that
I HAVE NOT HEARD THEM what you want me to say, that is the sad truth, if you read again my posts before going and accused me of false advertisement, you will notice that I never stated anything different.
I was just trying to show the rest of the members that there is a new amp, and that amp sounds surprisingly good...period, I know that this is not a very common amp here in the states, and if you want to hear it, you have to get it, period, otherwise you will never hear it. But Guru, if you feel that I'm lying, just ignore me, as I will do from now on with you, and period...
BTW I offered to mail the amp to any meeting to be heard, if I found a person responsible that take good care of them, as I'm no afraid of that anybody try the amp and compare it with the amp they want, I'm 100% confident of the sound quality I'm talking about, and that it is a very good amp, period, if you find any other better for around the same price, just let me know...just to get it..period....
There is no need, and I hate to compare things because sometimes people get pissed, or feel bad later, and sometimes tend to refuse the idea of that one thing is good just because someone says it is better that the one they currently have. But just to mention a few, I hear briefly Singlepower Maestro, that cost an arm and a leg, and Supra, same case, and the Cary modded, that Tom has ($$$$), RKV, Melos modded by Carlo, that cost about the same, and honestly I like the RP33 better, at least with the CD3000...Don't forget also the synergy, some amps sound good with a particular kind of headphones, and horrible with others. I will hear soon the HR-2, and some others later on at Aaron's, but to hear amps takes time.....or money, I will not get amps just to hear them, and compare them with the one I have, and I will not go to a meeting, in which I will not feel comfortable, because some persons like you will be there, just to hear some other amps, that I'm not even interested in.....just my two last cents....
Please guys feel free to believe what you please, and if any question PM me, and it is a real shame that in a Xmas day, we had this kind of disgusting argument.......unless of course you do not celebrate that date, and cares a rat ass about Xmas...sorry if I'm being rude...
