Other Notes: 

"The CHoco Sound EMEI by Kinki Studio is a compact integrated amplifier celebrated for blending tube-like warmth with solid-state power. Delivering rich, musical tones and a "single-ended triode" (SET) character, it offers powerful bass, detailed highs, and a holographic soundstage that rivals far more expensive gear. Its instrument separation and depth make it a standout in the sub-$2,000 category, earning it "giant killer" status among audiophiles.

Built with a robust 3D-machined aluminum chassis and a premium K9 glass display, the EMEI combines elegance with performance. Its 600-watt audio-grade power supply delivers 138 watts per channel into 8 ohms (180 watts into 4 ohms), ensuring plenty of headroom. Some users note the sound may lean warm, the remote responds slowly, and smaller binding posts may limit cable options, but these minor quirks don’t overshadow its remarkable musicality and value."
