    A friend runs this MBL amp with Vivid Kaya 45 speakers and it's a killer-sounding combo🎶

    Would love to have the space and time to listen to an MBL system, and maybe chose some of them (speaker+amp)… in the least shiny version.

    I'm sure it's a big hit with rappers with gold teeth and thirty pounds of gold chains around their neck, lol. But the remote is pretty cool.

      It comes in black/silver too, if you want to be boring.

      Actually I think the black/gold looks better than the black/silver. That white & gold just looks too Liberace to me.

      @@chrislj2890 Agreed🍻
      From an aesthetic pov it wouldn't be my first choice, but I am actually planning to purchase one after hearing it at length in a friend's set-up. It's hugely dynamic but minus that slightly uptight quality Class-D can sometimes have.

    Good morning 🌅, what a great review, if only I could afford it, I have all ways been a NAD follower, from the early years, a few years ago I was going to convert my attic , into a music room, 7+ mt x 12+ mt , 5+ mt vaultedRoof , but sadly I have now lost over 200-thousands, legal battle with my ex over five years, plus now I have storm damage, now legal battle with my insurance company, I have now just about run out on money, I still have my transmission line they speak cabinets, and NAD hi-fi equipment, I enjoy my music, As this is what keeps me going,
    It is like most things nowadays way out of reach of normal people that enjoy their music , it doesn’t matter whether it is cars motorbikes property, unless you are multimillionaire, you have no chance, and then when you make the money, somebody comes along and ruins your business, as this is what happens to me,

    Put the price in the description so I don't waste my time on overpriced gear. I wouldn't pay $21K for anything unless I could live in it or I could drive it to work.

    I always thought MBL was something you bought in a set, like speakers with electronics instead of buying separately. Either way good review

    • @TASmagazine
      @TASmagazine  Місяць тому +1

      @@jonathanmoore8886 Yeah, I think that view came from the 101 speakers being demanding. But other capable amps work with the 101 and the electronics work with lots of speakers. You have to attend to whether the MBL voicing works with your speakers and room, but of course that is true with all electronics.

    I’ll put the Putseys Eigantakt Purifi Class D modules against most if not all Class A-AB-Hybrid and Tubes! Distortion free with no sonic signature, Class D has come a long way away! Bonus, no heat, quiet and does not weigh 90lbs.
