Reviews

" Combine the AHB2's superb sound quality with its low weight, low noise, low heat, and low cost, and it's clearly an amplifier that must be heard—even by those who can afford amps costing as much as 10 times more. That makes the AHB2 more than a Benchmark. That makes it a bargain."

-Stereophile

"...the Benchmark AHB2 can become a great anchor to your system, offering high performance in a compact box. With an extremely neutral tonal balance, you can use it straight, or warm it up with a tube preamplifier, should that be your preference. Either way, the AHB2 is a stellar performer from a company known for excellence."
