Levinson Amps: What do they really sound like?

I'm using a Levinson 27.5 amp (vintage 1992-95) which is
100 W/chan @ 8 ohms. It's the little brother of the 23.5
I'm using it with Magnepan 1.6QR speakers, and find it
very musical. It has a clean high end, solid bass,
excellent soundstaging and imaging, and good dynamics.
I've owned quite a number of power amps, and this is
my favorite thus far.

They sound like "nothing". Nothing added and nothing taken away. Alot of people do not like them because it doesn't add warmth and bass bloom. If that's what you're looking for, then it's definitely the WRONG system for you.

If you're interested in the music as it should be heard on the recording. If the recording is sterile, it will sound sterile. If the recording is beautifull, then it will play that way. These amps add nothing as they sound like nothing.

I for ONE can tell you that they do not by any chance sound sterile, harsh and lifeless.

Mark levinson is very good amp, i had owned
the 336 with 380s almost two years ago.

I sold them after 6 months !!

If you want to hear good HIFI buy it !!

If you want to heard music buy JADIS/tube !!
