Sitat test i Stereonet:
With prodigious power output, excellent sound quality, good connectivity and functionality, the Accustic Arts Power I Mk 4 integrated amplifier makes a very strong case for itself, even at its high price. A kind of Mercedes Benz G-Wagon of hi-fi, it’s an old school product that’s built like a tank, and you can almost smell the quality – both outside and inside. The downside is, of course, its not inconsiderable price, but then again – much as many people try to pretend otherwise – you do get what you pay for. This big integrated amplifier comes with a feeling of quality baked in, and that’s what makes it special.
