Yeah so far, have only had it for a few days now. I'm using a power conditioner to turn it on and off with my TV and there is no issues with pops or clicks because the protection circuit works properly. The power indicator LED is green and not obnoxiously bright. Connectors seem perfectly adequate in quality and I was happy to find that the volume knobs are stepped and line up with the markings. Only issue I have found so far is that if I turn the volume over -15 hiss becomes noticeable accompanied by a slight buzz. I suspect this is the noise floor of the amp but it could be an issue with my 1/4" to RCA adapters or noise from my minidsp. Thankfully I have enough gain and can set the volume lower then that. I have only really pushed the system hard while watching the movie Glass. I could not detect any issues with sound quality or lack of power. The unit runs quite cool and I have not heard the fan turn on. A downside of this being a pro audio amp is that there are no rubber feet and the unit is somewhat heavy so one has to be careful with furniture it is placed on.
