Here we go with another "I loved 'em so much, I bought 'em" review. This time, Stereophile is the culprit and Channel Islands Audio (CIA) is the amplifier in review. The D-100 puts out, you guessed it, 100 watts of digital power. There's an interesting interview with the maker who talks about D, all things digital and what goes into this little tyke. Regardless, this is what Stereophile had to say:

"I could babble on about microdynamics and suchlike, but let's skip to the chase: I was so there."

Like, dude, so, so there! And it is, as far as I know, the rumors say these are pretty damn fine monoblocks priced at only $1599. The D-200 with 200 watts goes for $2299.
