RE: New high power amp. Let the stoning begin :)

The McCormack had a bit more detail than the BGW. A bit more of that top end "airiness" if you will. The BGW gives you some of that air around instruments but the McCormack has the edge there. The amp that immediately preceded the BGW is a Yamaha MX-830 and the BGW bests that in SQ as well as having a couple hundred watts per channel more to boot.
Now I have to mention that the IC's in use now are different than I used with the DNA so that might account for the difference. I going to swap the previous IC's back in and do some more listening.
If I haven't said it before, I'll say it now. The BGW is very "neutral" sounding. Very balanced sounding from top to bottom. No unpleasantness in the mids or treble at all.
