Other Notes: "Let's say you lust for one of the great amplifiers on the market -- the Lamm M1.2 Reference or even the Atma-Sphere MA-2 Mk II.3, both of which I have reviewed and admire greatly. You've heard one of these amps and loved it, believing that it would be the perfect mate for your speakers, which sound detailed and refined but need some juice. You've realized that you have two choices: take out a home-equity loan to buy the amp of your dreams, or give up on the idea of owning such an amp but know that you'll always wish for it.
Now you have a third option: the Blue Circle BC204, one of the most satisfying amps I've heard, and well under five figures in price. While I can’t say that the BC204 equals the Lamm and Atma-Sphere amps in every way, I can say that during my many weeks of listening to the BC204, I only had the desire to reinsert my reference amps to determine if what I was hearing from the BC204 was as good as it seemed -- to suspend any disbelief, so to speak." - SoundStage!
