Bel Canto 500M

[Glory]

Having the Pioneer/TAD S2Ex speakers @ 87Db I see that AJ's uses Bel Canto amps in shows. The BC 500M is used and I am thinking to sell my 150W LSA Statement amp and get the 500M.

Anyone have the BC 500M and care to comment?

Isn't this the amp Schweg has? I've never been satisfied long term with ICE-based amplifiers, but he seems to dig them.

A Vac Phi 200 drove the TAD Evo1s at the show beautifully and sounded better than many more expensive performers on TAD the same day.
