Wow, this Philips 590 sounds good, and it's evergreen. It has been more than ten years since I got this amplifier, and my customer sent it for repair and left it forever. I am equipped with Philips AD? ? ? 4" full-range long-throw speaker combination with AR tweeter (two-way) perfect sound, especially the bass sound enhancement of no echo, solid impact. Perfect sound for all range of vocal, jazz... ; More

Very capable amplifier which can be bought second hand for a fraction (~£1.2k) of it's new price. It has most of the features of a brand new K300 which would cost ~£8k ! Effortless power and current amplification (drive). Superb separation. Runs warm as its class A, and even in standby is using something like 20 watts.

Great little amplifier Very nice sound Enough power More

I have had the HK1400 since 1999, together with a HK CD player the HD740 and Tannoy R1 bookshelf speakers connected with twinned Kimber cable. The sound has been very good. In the last year I decided to upgrade the CD player and bought the Marantz cd5005. I thought that combining this with the Yamaha integrated amplifier at 100w would give me a better sound. I have tried this for 4 months and failed to get the openness the transparency and stagin... More

Very good vintage amp from Philips best era. Nice and warm sound. Bit underpowered but its special sound compensates. A matching speaker must be found for this, I use model 22 RH 422. Buy one in a good condition and try it - you will not be disappointed. More

Very great vintage amp, clear and warm sound, attractive look, higher power but lack of bass compare to 22 AH 590. More
