|  Monarchy SE-100 Basic vs. Odyssey Symphonic stereo amp | David K Jul 15, 2001 8:51 PM | | Any recommendations about the relative sonic merits of the Monarchy Audio SE-100 Basic monoblocks versus the Odyssey Audio Stratos stereo amp? Cost is not an issue here. I'm wondering which has the better sound stage, mid range and high end detail, bass, and overall natural presentation. |

Monarchy is a great brand but I have two Stratos mono and they perform incredible.
I will not say anything bad about Monarchy I respect them, but if you want some advice please avoid opinions of guys like this one.
Check the sonic virutes of the Monarchy's and Odyssey's and then try to figure out how they will match your room and speakers. |
