On top of all of this the Orton has a separate power supply for all its control circuitry minimising its affect on the sound making part of the circuitry further ensuring the purity of all music that passes through it.

Where using a Sonneteer CD player, music streamer, record player or even iPod doc the Orton delivers a truly musical experience that will captivate you senses for countless hours.

Ill tell you how much I like it: Im now feeling a bit of a fool for gushing so much over previous amplifiers Ive reviewedI have listened and listened, to everything from Nirvana to Handel and it has never put a foot wrong. In fact it hasnt once failed to put a grin on my face. I am both surprised and impressed. HifiWigwam
