I'd be curious to get your take on the MV60SE vs the Rogue Stereo 90.
I think the sound of those amps is greatly influenced by the preamps ahead of them. Were you using the same preamp with each power amp?
That being said, I actually prefer the Cronus Magnum Integrated (with it's internal preamp) to the Stereo 90 that I had which was driven directly by a DAC that had variable output level.
I suppose the Stereo 90 driven directly by the DAC should have been more transparent, and maybe it was. But the overall setup seemed a little lean especially in the mids, compared to the Cronus Magnum. I like a bit more of that warm 'tuby' sound. Some say the Cronus Magnum is not very 'tuby' sounding. I guess that's a matter of opinion too and where you're coming from.
