I just saw this amp in rolling stone magazine and did a google search to see what others thought. The magazine gave the amp an "excellent" rating but it's good to see actual owners having positive opinions. I've always been a fan of the sound of tube amps, so this seems like a good solution for me in my office set-up. I use songbird for my music collection and I guess I would be using the optical out of my mac for the input and a pair of Epos ELS-3 for speakers. I may go ahead and make the purchase since they do offer free returns. Anyone tried a similar set-up w/ the neuhaus amp?
