Anyone hear the new Audio Research DS225 pwr amp?

I have heard it at my dealers but can't pass judgement on it yet. He has offered me to bring it home to campare to my MC402, but I won't do that as I can't afford to trade even if I liked it better. And I really haven't heard it in a comparison to anything other than the tube amps. But I did like it's sound through the Wilson Sophia 2's. It makes me wonder what it would do in my system. I would say it is sure worth your investment in looking at it.

5560 ... I'm in the same boat with the DS450 . I have not been able to hear one or find a review . I'm very sceptical , the price is low , for 450 watts , and these are digital amps . Although A.R.C. has been doing digital longer than anyone .

I have the AR LS-27 and D-450 combo and am enjoying them greatly.FYI they are not digital, but class D analog( same thing I have noticed in latest Mark Levinson's TOL amp). The D-450 is so transparent it takes on the sound of my tube pre-amp and drives my Sophia IIIs sublimely.
