Warren,

I wanted to follow up on your experience with the YBA Passion amplifier.  I have several YBA Amplifiers dating back from the 1990s' and they are still going strong.  However, I am thinking about purchasing a YBA Stereo Signature amplifier in order to upgrade my system.  There is not much information nor are there reviews on the Signature Stereo Amplifier after they began fabrication in China.  I believe parts are made in France, design & MQA comes out of France alone with Andre doing the final listening to ensure it meets with his approval.  However,  I do not have any dealers near me so I can not listen this unit.  A bit scary considering the high cost.

I believe if your amplifier was made after 2012 it was probably fabricated in China.  How do you like the Passion Amp and have you had any problems with it.  Based upon your experience would you recommend the Passion Amp.
