    Thank you for your review. I don't understand why this amp gets so little attention in TH-cam. Very nice build, reliable brand, great sound at a very good price.

      @@MadAudiofficial Just not very good IMO. Congested sounding, lacks clarity and quality of line inputs. I believe it has rather high pf. I since moved on to A-S2100 (the metered line of amps, these all have the same phono stage) and it has a really excellent phono stage. Yes, more money but worth it if having vinyl is a big part of your listening experience.
