I love my wife. I love my kids. The 1070 is a very good amp. Is it 1000% better than my $300 Sony? No. It is more capable and has superior switching and cleaner power. It is maybe 20% better than my previous setup soundwise.
Having had plenty of experience with computers I am willing to forgive it's foibles - and there appear to be quite a few. It regularly gives me black and white instead of colour from my DVD player, it sometimes forgets that my CD settings are BYPASS and not Stereo 5. It can't even reliably do the channel configuration. However, it sounds great, works 90% of the time and has all the features I need. If that's love then I guess I'm in love...

PS: I'm more of a snake man myself. But at leaset lizards have ears... ;-)
