Ivan
They are A/B so they run much cooler than Dan's Krell class A designs. The amps have no fans. He used specially shaped holes in the copper to create a venturi effect to draw heat away from the inside. I left them idling overnight by mistake and in the morning they were not hot but you could feel warm air being pulled up thru the copper holes. Jim |

I agree with you TommyC. This one keeps to focal point on the amp. Jim congratulations on those beautiful amps. I'll be watching for more of your comments.

They seem to be breaking in very nicely. I could tell right from the get-go that they controlled the low end of my MBL's better than the 1.2k's. On the other hand they are less forgiving with poorly recorded music than my Mac's. I will provide more comments when I feel comfortable that they are fully broken in.

I can see how the looks of these amps alone would create interest. They are different very very classy, elegant.. and you just sense that they would be musical as well. I don't know I've never heard them myself, but they certainly look the part. Much like Burmester look the part....
I'm curious if anyone had noticed how 'trends' seem to evolve here? Currently, there seems to be a trend for these Dan Dagostino Momentum's. Just previous to that we had a Burmester trend and a Shindo trend... We've also been having a rather steady trend in Sonus Faber speakers, especially after Ivan got into them... Not suggesting anything in particular, but as I psychologist I do find it intriguing... then again, maybe it's just me... |

I've picked up on that. I guess there's safety in numbers plus we tend to influence our friends weather we know it or not. Hey, I don't mind and actually like it because look at all the great stuff we get exposed to - it's amazing and I live through many of you guys to see what I want next. |
