Strange coincidence-received my Rogue Atlas yesterday

General Asylum

General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

and this month's Stereophile with a review of same inside. A very strange coincidence as I believe in omens.
It seemed a lot heavier in the box than the 55 pounds stated. It also was kind of hard to get out of the box. That's ok. It was packed quite well, although an extra outer box would have been better.
I have not hooked it up yet as I decided to leave it in the plastic wrapper overnight. It was on my porch for a few hours while I was out. It was 25 degrees out. I did not want any condensation to form.
Those of you who did not order the top cover ($100) should order one. It's very attractive/nicely finished/heavy duty and not having it might hurt at resale time.
JA's test report was favorable overall. The Atlas is a bargain in today's world. That was the gist of the report.
86 watts per channel from one pair of KT77's is much higher than the 55 wpc specified. I've never seen that before.
Now to get it set up!
