Anyone using the Transistor Research LabsM 225's

TRL owners are going to write that the amps are the best they've ever heard.
You can find posts in at least half dozen threads. I've never read anything to
the contrary.

What other comments are you seeking, 'cause what you read here will be
more of the same...IMO.

Joe, maybe they are that good, they seem fairly affordable.

I've heard and read claims to fame with lots of estoteric equipment that grace the front pages of every audio rag known to man, now you can't even get into posting threads here without getting a frickin hammer over your head.

I'm curious about the amps too, so maybe for all-purpose sakes we can arrange an audition and skip this place for answers ?

$$$$$ = protection and advertising rights.

I'll save Tvad the trouble of reading my comments on the M-225's (as I owned the stereo version D-225).

My advice is to call TRL and arrange to get a pair. Listen for yourself. If you don't like them send the amps back for a refund. Pretty simple really.

Yes I own these amps. Tvad is correct, my search is over and now I just enjoy music. No more concerns about what the next great amp might be. I am listening right now to Tchaikovsky's "Nutcracker" and enjoying every minute.

Given TRL a call and tell them what you are looking for.

Tvad instead of being cynical of every TRL thread my recommendation is to first hand try the M-225's in your own system and them post a review here on Audiogon.

First, my post was an observation as I see it. Your view of it as cynical is your
perception.

Two TRL owners (maybe three) have posted in this thread, and nothing new
has been offered that hasn't been stated in other threads, so my observation
seems to be on the mark thus far.

Posts in other threads have stated that in-home trials are not offered by TRL,
so I have never pursued it.

I will do as you suggest if the amps are available with a return privilege. If I
am able to try them, I will post as fair and balanced a critique as I am
able. I presently own what I believe to be amps that are an ideal match for my
speakers. Through owning and auditioning five pairs of amps, it has become
clear that my speakers respond best to amps that the double power as
impedance is halved. Do the M-225 double power as impedance is halved?
My understanding is they do not.
