Im having absolutely fantastic results with this amp driving Neat Momentum speakers so thought that some of you might be interested to hear about it.
It has very mixed reviews, but it's absolutely working with these speakers which makes me think it has similar characteristics to Naim as Naim are used to voice Neat speakers.
The Neats are quite a difficult load due to being isobaric and load handling is this amps strong point. The control on the bass is easily the best Ive heard. This bottom-end effortlessness seems to free up the rest of the spectrum and so handles mids and high as well as anything else I've had except perhaps Rega & Yamaha had a slightly more refined top end.
My main concern was how snappy it would sound as it is digital and I was worried it might lose some energy in all the conversions but no, its got the energy to match Naim.
Ive used Naim Nait 5i-2, Naim Nait XS, Rega Elex R, Denon PMA1600ne, Yamaha as1200.
The only downside is it is horribly ugly but is fine to live in a cupboard.... so thats where it will live!
