Well I ordered an XLS 1500 (how bad can it be at 500/ch at 4 ohms and $335) and it came Friday morning. My first brand new Amp in MANY years. Today. after moving my little VTL 50/50 to the bedroom (those lucky Linn Indexes) I hooked the Crown up and.......SCHIIT IT SOUNDS AWFUL. I was pissed and was ready to box it back up. I had to go food shopping so I left it on as I left. Well I was shocked what a few hours did. Now it was just harsh and not much bass. It's been 6 hours now and while still no tube amp, I'm getting more impressed. My little MG-1C's are stretching their legs a bit, enjoying some volume levels not head before. I will leave it on tomorrow while at work and not pack I up quite yet. I will add more feelings as I listen more and more. This iv not my main system, but I'm enjoying the experience of a new amp a lot. So thanks for all the advice !!! |
