I would describe myself as a Hi-Fi enthusiast rather than an audio file hence perhaps I don't posses the credentials to offer an in depth review of audio equipment as others possibly could. However what I can do is state that in my years of buying equipment from various retailers never have I had the level of feedback given my Mark and his crew. First class service and advice. On to the piece I bought. I had been looking for several weeks to upgrade my integrated amp, it needed to have in built DAC but other than that I was free to go with anything. Having seen some reviews of the Gato 250S NPM I was interested to learn Elite had a demo version they were willing to offer a deal on. Now I have never done this but decided to take the advice from Mark and David and buy without seeing or hearing!! Noting the scale of diminishing returns I received the amp within days and had hooked it up to my system. Verdict, blown away, what a sweat sounding amp, more than enough power to drive my speakers with oodles in reserve. Never have I heard my system or those of my friends colleagues over the years systems sound as expressive and alive. Whether streaming, connecting via Bluetooth, CD or vinyl this amp manages all forms with ease setting up detailed sound stages with depth and drive. Thank you all at Elite Audio for your help, advice spped of response.
