"The Yamaha shows race and class. It sounds particularly coherent via the XLR input."

"The AS2000 takes even the most difficult loudspeaker to the curb in such a way that it can't help but play extremely clean and controlled. This manifests itself by no means — as is often mistakenly assumed — as a bass force, but as a liberation of the lowest register from all inertia. The mids, in which the whole richness of music takes place, are reproduced in a multifaceted and colorful way, the highs appear well-dosed and fine.";

" ... (he) ... able to capture and authentically reproduce the atmosphere and space of a recording, the musicians stagger exactly in width and depth and with generous dimensions."

"An honest amplifier with a clear sound and inexhaustible power as a silent reserve – not a flatterer, but one that deserves our trust."
