I auditioned it extensively and almost bought one. It's also a good value. You'd have to spend a lot to beat it.

BAT = fully balanced, use of 6H30 super tubes and thier nice oil capacitors. Other brands worth being on your radar are AudioNet and Vitus. The former was a head-turner that stood out to me in AXPONA, and the later at THE Show. GUTB, we finally agree about something!

I am pretty excited to hear what 21 bit SNR sounds like to the speakers. Maybe, I won't notice, but either way I will report. Wondering if you thought of an integrated that has a tube pre. Many of the advantages of an SS integrated, and you might like the tubes involved. Or an SS power amp with a tube input section. There are a few on the market.
