A real step forward in terms of sound quality and connectivity, of course!
First of all, congratulations to LDLC for the speed of delivery J+5 for Reunion Island, that's a pleasure.
About the amp:
1. The sound is really good, that is to say: clear, clean, precise: frequencies that are in their place, it's a real evolution in terms of quality even though I'm replacing a Class A. I'm rediscovering old songs with a new ear!
2. It's a huge technological leap forward for me, as I've never had a connected amp before.
- The settings interface directly on the TV is interesting.
- The HEOS connection is simply brilliant and very easy to use. The network is recognised straight away, there's no need to disconnect, and the phone app is really well thought out.
- Access to online radio stations and apps like Spotify / Amazon music, etc. is simple and intuitive. ALL VERY WELL.
- The only downside when using a hard drive (network or USB) is that there's no alphabetical sorting of folder names - they're in the order in which they were created on the drive (or maybe I've missed the option...).
In short, I recommend it.
