Hi Chuck,

I totally agree. The vertical heatsinks are a major improvement in both form and function on the smaller amps. I still prefer the faceplate on the .5 series amps, although the simplicity of the .8 series faceplate is starting to grow on me.

Best,
Ken

Hi, Ken. Thanks for noticing. Actually, I don't quite have the cables yet. CES backed up production for a while. I'm sure they will sound great though . Seriously, I'll report once the new cables settle in, but I must say my system is sounding sweet as it is.

That's great news, Carlos. And it's only going to get better!

Wow. This sounds very promising. Time to get in touch with Reno Hi-Fi

Thanks Ken!


However, I don't see anything from this year, just last year.

It looks like the binding posts can accept bananas now.
