Fast, dynamic sound. DAC adds value; good upgrade potential

Sound seems to lack some detail, particularly in complex music

Probably best heard in the context of a Cyrus system, this amp has some great qualities

Sound is fast, lively and pretty well detailed, but is let down by some shrillness which can quickly grate on the ear and which distracts from the good midrange and bass. Excellent features count, but at a sonic price.
