I can see why the other failed on the WAF. This one does, too. Ken Stevens needs to go to industrial design school, as he does not understand clean and practical industrial design. That looks simply ridiculous with respect to the speaker cables, interconnects, and the position of the cable jacks and binding posts. Big speaker cables coming off the middle of the side of an amplifier? Interconnects that plug in on either side of the front? Gimme a break! I wouldn't have it for failing the PCAF as well. Reminds me of some of the preamps where the IC's have to be inserted vertically.
