This keeps coming down in price by about $20 every time it's on sale (new, not open box). Wondering if I should wait for $126 new.

Just avoid this amp altogether in my opinion. I had one for a couple years and had to get it replaced under warranty 3 times.The pot gets extremely scratchy causing audible static when changing volume in just a few month. The 3rd unit I received had grounding issues with the power supply and caused hum when touching anything metal while using it.

Even more so, it's sound is very flat and lacking in dynamics. I have since moved to Schitt's discrete amps (Magni+, Jotunheim 2) which have served me much better in both sound and build quality.

I'm assuming this would be absolute overkill for my Grado SR60s, right?
