RE: Alternative stands for SMGa's?

Thanks. I've had my eye on that very amp, but I'm not having much luck finding "trustworthy" (as in, not written by owners that are in love with their new toys) reviews of it. I like the power numbers, but I keep reading how different amps change the sound of speakers, especially planars.

I don't know if I should believe that, either. Back in day, when Julian Hirsch was a lone voice of reason in a sea of marketing BS, and his main argument made sense to me. If two amps are both working properly and producing similar levels of output, they should sound identical when driving the same speakers. After all, it's not the amp's job to change the character of the sound, only the volume.

On the other hand, I'm personally experiencing the substantial change to the speakers' sound that moving them one inch left or right produces. So, I suppose it's possible that an amp could color the sound, too.
