Hello everyone - finally registered & thought I'd jump in here, as I've had a DIA-250 since May 2014.
Mate - did you get a replacement? What was the outcome?
I guess I was a fairly early adopter in the States, and maybe because of that there were couple of hiccups with the amp. Michael Kelly at Aerial Acoustics (the US distributor) was very quick to respond and solve the issues. About seven months in, the amp produced no sound. So Aerial replaced it. About ten months after that the display started behaving strangely, with some of the LED dots being dimmer than others. Gato had designed a new display to solve that issue, so I returned the amp again and got a new display. Everything has been fine since.
I had been very interested in the newer class D technologies, and was lusting after the Rowland Continuum S2, but when I found out Gato was using the same Pascal module as Rowland for half the price, I went for it. I'm a sucker for design & aesthetics so it's a good fit that way too.
It makes me wonder how much better the new "S" version is?
