Yes, I know your a Manley man...)
As a side note, boy am I bummed about Thiel ditching JT's design and vision.

So was I, pair of NEO250's, some of the best sounding amps I ever had, however, noisy as hell thru 96 db/W sensitive speakers and run extremely hot. And way too expensive to retube...long gone...
Manley's can be on the "hummy" side...
That is an understatement....there was always something uncanny about the left channel amp...when first turned on and "charging", man that thing was mechanically noisy...sometimes the whole amp would mechanically vibrate, at a very low level. Really erratic, sometimes it was fine. Did NOT like being powered by a PS Audio AC regenerator..major ground hum. Always floated ground. And the power switch? Major pop thru my Legacy Focus SE's evertime I turned the amps off.They eventually made thier way to Australia via A'Gon!
