Yes it's about time.
I've been spruiking about this integrated forever, seeing it's the much cheaper cousin of the unobtainable mega dollar SE-R1 poweramp. GaN technology and hopefully using the 3 x faster 1.5mhz switching frequency that's used in the SE-R1
Cheers George

and love them, but is this appropriate for an "objective" audio journal? Free advertising, or even worse...

Please register and watch before assuming. This webinar will be a deep dive into the technology of this amplifier. Like white papers? Get on board.

That's how you now it's not an editorial product. Obviously this is not a review, but that doesn't mean that it's without value. On the contrary, it's an excellent opportunity to learn about the product, as one might from a dealer.

Will this be available to watch later? For those of us who have bosses that frown on us not working?

... one could watch the review by Andrew Robinson.

Based upon his comments - and assuming that Stereophile will review this unit - if the entire review is not assigned to MF, then he should be given a separate opportunity to review the phono preamp section.

I just can't sit through his reviews anymore. He spends too much time with a look on his face like he is talking to a confused child (profile pic).
And his 'reviews' feel more like infomercials but I guess that is working for both his audience and the manufactures so continued success to him.

Somehow that amplifier looks like it's upside down!

That was one of the worst webinars I've ever attended. Those Technics folks talked about the power supply for 45 minutes and then didn't answer any audience questions at the end. Waste of time.

Speaking in behalf of Frank and myself at Technics, please accept our apologies. Our intention was to answer all questions posted during the webinar. Answers are forthcoming.
