Hi info is pretty scarce I just did a google search for music hall mambo and you get a number of sellers with minimal info,Thanks

it is probably based on the Shanling SLM-A40 MKII.

A bunch of the Music Hall products are re-badged Shanlings

Here is a link to the Shanling SLM-A40 MKII info from the Canadian Shanling Distributor:

that is what i was thinking as well. The shanling can be had for under $1500.00 canadian, not sure what the musichall goes for.

I have had a number of opportunities to listen to the shanling amp, and in every system i have heard it in, it has amazed me to no end.. It truly is the nicest sounding low(ish) costing amp i have EVER heard.

Thanks for the info guys,sorry to post so late but I go out of town to work on weekends.It does seem very similar to the Shanling.I wonder does the dac sound good as well,Thanks

the dac is a very nice upsampling unit, very similar in sound tothe solid state outputs of the cd t-100 unit they offer.
