It is true that one is easily seduced by the "pretty face" of an amp like the Inter M L2400 that I sold recently, Yamaha & Co. that are manufactured at the other end of the world. So we miss many great products from our range as Elyon / Audio BCorde of Dagon. Certainly they do not have a full page in a particular magazine, the look and housing (solid) of 800 Dagon are basic but very elaborate hidden electronics to render the best music. The housing has a bad transformer 500VA, a map of power transistors 12 Toshiba not plastic found on all current amp, but the TO3 metal housing to high-speed switching.
In this price range for them in the hands (in the table mix) various amplifiers well known, a comparison will be so much indecent Dagon surpasses 800.
From the first listen felt the power reserve, the sounds are structured, the precise contours, configuration mono immediately shows its superiority over conventional electronic stereo listening says "professional" quality, except for entries that are only asymmetric, disability over long cable lengths in concert.
Once connected my speakers equipped with B & C have been transfigured, compression DE16 is lighter and rises above the snare taps dry, the attacks have become free, while I thought their lack of momentum was due to amortization of boxes too heavy.
Cons:
For use on stage I loved it has balanced inputs, but if the source is close to no risk of hum.
To use an audiophile / studio I liked a thermal switch for triggering the fan.
Mobile disco for no less, this amp is a luxury!
Assets:
The price!
Its power reserve.
Whether an audiophile or professional use (musician) this amp provides a dynamic bandwidth outstanding, simply outstanding.
Protection fuses on the front quickly to change, sometimes the little care given to our cable does not put us away from a short circuit (to 5 hours in the morning have a tendency to pull to get them in the fly ... .)
A simple and efficient mail to facilitate the work of any service workshop.
Certainly one of the best amplifiers reserved to the professional market, not to be missed!
Next to the price I should put 10/10, strictly Audiophile Pro or 8 / 10 for qq less.
One regret not having made that choice earlier.
