“The hyperbole of the review title aside, this is a simply fantastic integrated amp. The sound quality on every source (streaming, CD/SACD, and vinyl) has remarkable clarity, texture, depth and sounds very, very "right" in my space--and this is without Dirac Live enabled. Bass is rich, full and tuneful without being boomy, highs are airy and precise without being fatiguing, midrange is spot-on neutral with a hint of warmth. Pairs well with my KEF R11 Meta speakers. LOVE the BluOS app, very easy to use with TIDAL and I've yet to have any audio hiccups. For context, I've owned amps from Lyngdorf, Marantz, Luxman, Hegel, and Audiolab. The M33 has the best overall sound quality with my speakers and in my large (400 sq feet) listening space. It's pricey, but also pretty damn near end game unless you want to go the separates route.”
