Review
"The GT40 shows us that a jack-of-all-trades really can be the master of all. While it might not get hard-core audiophiles drooling to use it in the most extreme megabuck systems, I’d be hard pressed to name any product that can clearly outshine the GT40 in just one of its many functions for the same money. When you add all of those functions together, the result is clearly a bargain." - AV Guide
