Okay, I'm still planning on writing a full review but I couldn't contain my excitement after getting this amp unboxed and hooked up! The USPS stretched my patience to the breaking point (I expected the amp last Wednesday) but it is finally here. The packaging was great, everything was in top shape and the giant Sophia is lit...the music is flowing! I'm spinning too many discs right now to list but the GS1000i's are certainly benefiting from the power on tap with this amp. Soundstage breadth and specificity took a large step in the right direction. I'm getting used to most of this gear but it definitely feels like everything needs to limber up a bit. Micro detail is fairly well resolved but macro gestures (symphonic crescendos, etc) still seem a bit constrained.
I'll take some pictures, write up my 0-50 hour remarks, and put it all in a new post sometime soon.
As a bonus today, I found a much neglected 10-year-old pair of Grado SR-60's at the bottom of a box of cables. Where do I get replacement pads?
