for the Reference 3 S.A. Amplifier

I bought the Reference 3 S.A. amplifier to power the second voicecoil of my Anthony Gallo Nucleus Reference 3.5 loudspeakers. I've had the system open up a wide range of low frequencies, enabling the low end of the spectrum to go down to about 22.

A must for anyone who has these speakers. Bass is not boomy but an extension of the low end in a very real way. I've been enjoying this enhancement very much so, I should have pulled the trigger on this setup sooner.

Product Weakness:	none for the price
Product Strengths:	build quality, cost, niche
