Should arrive tomorrow, apparently it is the next amp up from the Audition C which I can find a bit more info on.
This is the only review I could find, bit a risk buying, but 4 weeks without an amp is just too long
" I was lucky enough to hear this at the factory played thru a
pair of totum 1''s, if you don''t know these speakers then seek out the
reviews for these, they are small, but great bass, expensive, but value
for money. Needless to say they are going to be my next purchase. Anyway
back to the amp. It is rated at 65w but sounds a lot more, no mickey
mouse ratings with this. The guys at Sugden played me loads of different
stuff, classical, rock, trance, female vocal, accoustic guitar etc. I
think I''d have stayed all night if they hadn''t closed. This amp,
especially with these speakers, makes great music, what I mean is you
don''t feel you are listening to hifi but to the artists themselves. On
one particular track, a piano being played in an auditorium, the
instrument could have been in the room with us. Not only that but people
coughing could be placed exactly in 3D as to where they were sat! On
another track by "Ryan Adams" the first verse only had accoustic guitar,
again he could have been sat 5 foot in front of me such was the
reproduction, even the plucking of the individual strings could be
placed vertically. I, at present, have the amp connected to a Rega
Planer 3 & a pair of Richard Allan "Minette2" speakers. The speakers
sound OK (much better than when connected to my previous amp), and my
vinyl has never sound so good, I have started to listen to music
properly once again, however I am looking forward to getting the Totums.
If you want an amp that is detailed, but not harsh, has an excellent
phono stage (MM only) and a unique, as far as I know, EQ set up. (Check
out there web site for the details www.jesugden.co.uk) Then for the
money I think you will be hard pushed to better this."
