This is very interesting feedback, and extremely contrary to my experience. There is nothing wrong with having different opinions, but to say "by far the worst amplifier I have ever heard" is a very strong statement. I have heard this integrated multiple times, and I would describe it as being just the opposite - bass in particular was strong and dynamic, and not that far off from the dedicated KWA-150SE amps. I am not going to flat out say you are wrong, but perhaps you had a bad unit or something else was going on that negatively impacted your system synergy.

Kevin should have his unit soon - I am excited for him and I look forward to his report.
