Bada DC-225

I appreciate it Chayro. Pacific Valve was very responsive on the phone, and by the demo online I can tell that they live and breath this stuff lol. Perhaps I can ask you another question: have you or anyone you know had a chance to listen to the DK Design VS.1 Reference MK II and how would it compare to the Bada? It's been stuck on my mind since I've started this hobby and am pretty torn on this versus the Bada DC-225. The Bada is an exceptional deal for the money, and will more than likely go with it. But there'll always be that lingering thought in the back of my mind saying "what if...."

That lingering thought will always be with you until you realize that there is always something better than what you have. Besides that, "better" is a matter of taste. I never heard the DK, but I enjoyed the Bada very much in my system. Many people I know view audio as a constant source of stress. Always agonizing over this or that. It's no way to go through life. The Bada is a solid amp that will not dissapoint you. I would buy it and worry about the rest of my system.

That's a good point Chayro, I think the Bada will compliment my system tremendously. Thanks again for your input ;)

I have had the BADA 225 for about a year. I replaced a Sunfire amp and passive volume control with the bada. I was amazed by the sound of this amp. It is more detailed and fluid at the same still have plenty of volume to listen to music despite giving up some wattage. I am very satisfied with the bada 225.
