Reviews
Eisa award winner
"This may be the more affordable of two integrated amplifiers in Rotel's revived Michi lineup, but it's undoubtedly the sweet spot of the range, combining 'drive anything' confidence with speed, warmth and the ability to switch from pile-driver to a gossamer touch when required. There's no shortage of power here, but the Michi X3 carries its massive output lightly, being fast, detailed and beautifully controlled, and is all the more rewarding as a result. Add in its flexibility, build quality and sheer style, and you have an amp able to take on all the super-integrated amplifiers now available and show most of them a clean pair of heels"
Michi is awarded 5 star rating by HiFi Choice
"With so much power at its disposal, it won’t come as a surprise to learn that the Michi X3 can play piledriver when it’s called upon. But power is nothing without control and finesse and it’s here that it earns its stripes. While speed, agility and warmth are among this integrated’s attributes, what really impresses here is its gossamerfine lightness of touch. Suddenly all that power is thrown into sharp relief,becoming more rewarding in the
process. Throw in a deft mix of top-notch build quality, flexibility and supreme styling.

HiFi News calls it a bargain - Hi-Fi News Verdict
"The headline with this amplifier is therefore that it's as good as it ever was, and a remarkable high-end bargain. The story here is of a company updating a classic hi-fi bargain without messing it up – which is never a given. Even at its new price, the X3 S2 is a steal, delivering such scintillating performance that if you're considering a 'big integrated', or even a pre/power this side of five figures, then it's a must-listen – you're going to love it!" read the review in HiFi News
