Benchmark System Review (Video) - New Record Day

"I love, I love, I love my Benchmark AHB2 power amps!"

- Theo Nicolakis, Audioholics Online A/V Magazine

Theo uses a pair of AHB2 power amps in bridged mono (480 W into 6 Ohms) to drive a pair of Revel Ultima Salon2 loudspeakers ($20,000/pair). This is his reference amplifier-speaker combination.

Find out why Theo loves his AHB2 power amplifiers:

Jay discusses the sonic tradeoffs between transparency and the sound of tube-induced distortion. He describes how his tube amps may make poor recordings sound enjoyable while the AHB2 reveals all.

"I don't think it is sterile sounding at all ... it is very neutral."

"In the studio, neutral, flat and detailed are on the top of my list."

"The HPA4 is speeding up my work, helping me make better decisions."
