Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $1965.00 from J M Audio

Summary:
Since i entered on tube audio , i never more looked back to transistors (except for an amp but thats another history), so i was looking for an good quality amplifier, so i give this little beauty a shoot, and it does not disappointed me. i currently have no doubt that this chinese manufacturer makes very good quality amplifiers, since i currently own alot of their equipment. in realtion to this amplifier i do recomend it a lot if you have the money for it(it is not very expensive), and the correct speakers for it. remember, its only 15 watts SE @ 3 % distortion, so i would not go beyond 11 watts to keep quality at maximum. my version have both 4 ohm, 8 ohm, and 16 ohm gold plated binding outputs. and of course.. its a SET SE class A.

Strengths:
bass response its very detailed, mid-range it is one of the best i have heard around. dynamics are very but very good

Weaknesses:
15 watt limitation. the price of the triodes. it runs very hot.

Moscode 402Au OLT stereo power amplifier Review

George is adamant about the fact that the Moscode 402Au is not just a tube gain stage slapped onto a solid-state power amplifier; rather, it is a tube amplifier with a MOSFET output stage.

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
