"It produced MUSIC. It was engaging. It was detailed. All of us had smiles on our faces when listening to it. We had zero ear fatigue. "

"t was airy and detailed without being bright. It was warm and emotional without being fuzzy and muffled. It just felt right."

"No matter what we threw at it, it just kept crunching what we gave it and put a smile on all our faces. "

Audio Technique from Hong Kong features the DP-777


"When playing CD, the 16bit DAC produced an ethereal presence just like the actual performance; one was magically transported to the concert itself... When playing high-resolution files using the 32bit DAC, it was so natural, one was moved by the music, just pure, natural beauty. One can only conclude that the DP-777 is one quite exceptional DAC."

The DP-777 puts a spell on NewZealand's Witchdoctor
EinsNull 3/2000 Cover
As Witchdoctor's Gary Pearce succinctly put it, "As clean as the sound
quality was, it didn't lose sight of the performance. I'd describe it as an
un-audiophile sounding pre/server combo that just delivers the sonic goods,
allowing the listener to get on with the enjoyment of music."

We would like to formally thank Mr Pearce. It makes our day when a reviewer has ' gorged
myself on a swathe of classical, jazz, blues and pop/rock.' This is what AMR
units do best, bring the enjoyment in listening to music, in a big way.

DP-777 Digital Processor up against Art’s Garrard Shindo Vinyl System

Art effused…”...from Day One, the AMR produced some of the least fatiguing, most involving, and altogether best-sounding digital playback I’ve had in my home.” Art also gushed…“The AMR was more than a pleasant distraction, more than just an escape from the humdrum,; it provided the very best digital I’ve heard.” We wish to extend a big ‘Thank You’ from the staff and directors at AMR.
