3,400 Yuan = $421.00....

I find it impossible that that piece of equipment could cost so little...can anyone else perhaps translate the page better?

It's 3,400 Yuan (shipping not included)

I'm looking for a little bit more control for months now, but I don't need another amp and paying $421 just for an adjustable control seems to be contradicting, especially when I can't predict how chinese control mixes with a german mindset.

So there is no official site on this thing?

To convert a balanced signal (if you have one) to a single-ended output. Don't ask me why

But it seems odd that it comes with the 4-Pole XLR adapter that plugs it into both jacks instead of just one. Wouldn't that mean it's balanced but uses 1/4 jacks instead of XLR jacks?

And I'd love to know if anyone knows how to contact this guy (or if he speaks english).

I got my SXT2 Specical Edtion, pics will posts later.

I ordered mine with full upgrade resistors and coupling caps.

coupling caps are for tube amps. i didn't see any tube on the pictures of that tx2.
I see these are used to tweak the low frequency sound. Your version might have better low frequency responce, tighter bass.

very interesting amp! hopefully the fan is quiet, though.
