I read it 22 pages about this amplifier and absolutely everybody it s talking about measurements, components, power consumption etc. Guys, you are all engineers?! I just want to know how this amplifier sound? How it s comparing to other amplifiers? You are playing music tru this gear, or you just measure? I hope you will enjoy more music and emotions, than measurements. Happy listenings!
It will sound exactly as the measuments show, neutral. Remember this is an amplifier not speakers. The module's specs are superb, issues after that are from different opamps, power supplies, and wiring, introducing their own characteristics as distortion and noise. I agree that many will bicker over the measurements, especially if chasing inaudible numbers, within the audio chain but the electronic's measuments are cut and dry and will tell a completer story provided there are a full suite of them. Speakers are different to a degree and due to variables, with many beyond the speaker itself.
 
Please share pictures when you get the amp.

...used these adapter cables to connect to SE sound system which would not be necessary with Apollon amp...it has not been an issue besides acquiring them...is ironic because Aune N7 preamp is balanced...but signal runs through SE subs...

...Buckeye sells some shorter cables, but it is a long run from sub #2 to amp...I selected Buckeye over Apollon because USA...no one will hear a difference...

...but I should have gotten a blue case...!!!...USA...!!!...

I wouldn't mind the Buckeye case. Solid build quality is more important to me. And that looks very solid in the case + the amp has all the options in the back.

Interesting mention these WBC Pro cables. Haven't seen the brand before, but they are also on amazon here in europe.

Beautiful amp. Sorry I thought you bought the Apollon 6525. I was hoping for a pic of that.
 
...I likely would have bought Apollon amp if I was in EU or England...

...check out this thread for images of one out in the wild...
