It's actually not a classic stereo. My dealer gave me a master power 3. Same thing, we think.
First thoughts...much more authority, slam, and clarity. For loud rock...no comparison with my ref 75. It kills the ref 75, even though the ref goes quite loud with only 10 watts.
But turn the volume down and play some folk or acoustic guitar...it does become difficult to choose. There is a slightly magical quality to the ref 75 at normal volumes and acoustic music.
I have a week to figure this out. It won't be easy.
