Sounds great plus I can't get the amp hot enough to run the fans. I'm very happy so far. I have no hum or buzz the amp is very quite.*My question is why don't more people buy these pro-amps for home stereo's? This is a very clean powerful amp for $699.00. You would pay at least $1800.00 for half the power in a consumer amp. I'll never look back. I will admit the sound is a bit more analytical the best way I can describe it. I'll never run out of headroom. I have to laugh when I hear people talk about how harsh these pro amps are, I sure don't find them harsh at all.
I am in your corner on this one. I discovered the same problem with my DJ Amps that I use in my home theater. Here is a link to what my setup is in case you are curious.

Is this setup genius or insanity?


Simply disconnect your cable wire from the cable box and you have no more hum. I nearly jumped for joy when I discovered that. What the heck is a Rolls he Hum reducer? How much does it cost? Where can I get one?
