A08 is pretty good, but not a giant killer either. Comparing it to my Audiolab 6000A. Right away I can hear the Highs are a bit more in your face, a little glare... The bass isn't as defined. Less midrange. Overall the tone is a little off, less refined. But overall it's fairly acceptable, IMO it punches a bit above it's price. Perfect for my shop speakers (although I have yet to try it on them) Perhaps an op amp swap will improve a bit? we'll see.
