Re: Ayre Acoustics MX-R Amplifier (SS)

John,
Well, speaking personally, I sure would like to hear your best effort.

Yes, these were Bob's amps. I purchased them from his estate last year. They've been wonderful. The MX-Rs are better in most respects, but not by that much. I have no idea if this is largely an RFI factor or not. Al Sekela, who posts on the Sound Lab Owners' board, asked this:

"Charles Hansen has posted on the Audio Asylum that his products do not use the AC safety-earth connection. This is a large benefit in many applications, since the AC safety-earth wiring carries RF noise from sources within the house as well as within the audio system."

Interesting stuff. For me, I'm just enjoying the music.

Mike
