It might be a tiny bit better than my GS150, but if I am upgrading I should be aiming for the monos. I can't easily afford those, so I'm back to being happy with my GS150.

What a crazy hobby.

Very wise

I had the GS150 and now the Ref160’s.
There should be an upgrade factor in getting the Ref160S but it doesn’t seem worth it unless you can also jump to the advantages of monos with the Ref160Ms.

I reckon the dual VU meters (being smaller) look more beautiful than the single large one in the mono

Default Ref160 stereo?
No doubt a good looking amp, and I’m fond of black
