Where are you getting it from?  You can find it cheaper. Silk audio or Canada.

Your question was "Worth the investment of $709.99?"...so that answer dealing with price is entirely in the ballpark...you didnt ask ANY questions about the amp or its specs...

Was curious if anyone could give me their impression about this amp, due to its price range IMO its considered cheerful and cheap.  But then again, I ended up going for Cary Audio SLI 80 instead.   :wink:

The output power is too big to just two EL34, even in Pentode it would be around 30W.
STM output power may be around 15W RMS in Triode.
If you need 45W to your speaker take care.
At Hong Kong its cheaper, the chassis is nice.
