ear:

we are waiting

You'll be waiting a while.

No speaker links

Still got old rack, new one probably not ready for a few weeks.

No speaker switch box yet.

Old cables in plastic covers on walls in kitchen (biamp cheapo 6mm copper to be replaced).

Redecoration due in a couple of weeks. 

Far too much hassle/issues to even try to hook up new amp.

Mind you really enjoying The Cure on the Arcs tonight so not too bothered.

PJPro:

I admire your restraint JoelSim. I wouldn't be able to wait, particularly if I didn't audition the amp before buying.

Nothing about restraint, I don't have the right cables to hook it up. I need links/jumpers and I don't know where they are. I could have low frequency, or high frequency as it stands and that ain't gonna work.

I did have a quick demo but it wasn't the best track for my listening tastes so I can't really make a comparison. I also had my 2 year old with me which again isn't ideal.

We will see, 70% of my stuff has been sold now, just the tuner and a couple of cables left now. (6 cables, 2 amps and a rack gone!) 

Restraint?

Given that my rack has been removed.

And that consequently amp, CDP and DVD are stacked on top of one another on the floor.

And I've done a quick & dirty on connecting the speaker cables.

Sounds good,

Deep sound.

I think I'm going to like this when I get all my bits.

First Impressions are that it has more verve and depth. I can't say any more as yet. Not warmed up, not in properly.

I like it. A lot.

It's got the same quality as the biamped Arcs with more 'tunefulness', if that makes sense.
