In his review of the Osiris, Jeff Dorgay stated " tremendous amount of bass weight and control " ( Tone Audio # 26 ).
That is true.
The Osiris will kick the ass of many high end separates when it comes to bass grip, extension, resolution and dynamics. Including my C1000P / 2301 combo
and they are not kiddies.
The Osiris makes Music. Not only a tremendous bass.
It smokes a darTZeel CTH8550. At less than half the price. Ok it's not golden. But the sound is. . It also explodes a C1000P / 501's when it comes to bass.
I love it. It is a tremendous amplifier. It controls my PMC like no other amp I tried. And I tried a few amps.
SS : McIntosh MC501's, Naim NAP250/2, Audiolab 8000PX, ARC100.2
Tubes : McIntosh MC2301's, Manley Snappers, JC Verdier 845's.
Too bad it has only one XLR input !
I just listened to the MDA 1000 using the balanced inputs so.....
More to come with vinyl and the REF 2......
