John Curl and Nelson Pass always try to improve their new designs. D'Agostino's new designs are high priced and mediocre performers. The first set of Momentum's Stereophile tested failed, they never tried the same test with a replacement second set to meet publishing deadlines. Later Krell gear, especially the Showcase home theater stuff, was laughable.

All of these guys are great. They love what they do and it shows.
The Stereophile test I read had ONE of the pair of mono blocs fail during the pre-conditioning period. It would not restart even though the fuses were good. OOOPS!
The other met or exceeded most specs except for bandwidth. Square wave was near-perfect.
Other measured performance was pretty darn good, including 2ohm power of OVER 1kw. I'd personally have a separate 20 amp circuit for EACH amp.
Not for me, though. I'm quite happy with the Parasound I have hooked to my panels. If I had THAT kind of $$$ for amps? I'd go with either a pair of JC-1 or look to Pass for some 'a' monos.
Too much is never enough
