Not sure if my post is applicable?
I'm running two Bryston 7BSST2 Monblocks with two JBL 4430 Monitors.
Coming from McIntosh Amplification prior to the Brystons I was initially not at all happy with the new Amps.
Very lean thin sound I experienced for the first 100-150 hours of play. Took quite awhile for these Amps to come around and have a better balanced sound.
Whether my ears changed with the Amps, and I got used to them, I'm not sure, but the handle the 4430's with gobs of very clean and effortless amplification, run very cool.
I do miss the big blue meters though.
