I sat there just wondering what that thing is made of

I'll take a guess. It's branches that the builder picked up and played with until he found pieces that "fit" what he had is his mind to construct.

Your father has some skills / imagination.

But that is the strangest looking stand I have ever seen in both material and looks :P

I sat there just wondering what that thing is made of... It looks cool how it shifts from one color to the other and it just looks so different

Mind telling us what it is made of?

Well i am not quite sure what kind of wood it is made of

But the dark part in the rear is part of a moose hipbone, well if you want to know the wood parts i can ask him next time i speak to him

And what he gets the ideas from i have no clue

Sorry for the late reply guys, I've been away from internets access. I'll certainly have impressions for you guys, soon, with perhaps some comparison to the Zhaolu.

I look forward to them, as long as you don't say it sounds better than the Zapped Zhaolu.

Wipes the floor with it, it does.

Thanks. I had to pack transiters that way in order to make whole amp out of that small purf board. It was kind of hard to solder, but that's the way I designed. It sound quite warm and nice.

What transistor pairs did you used? The good ol BC3x7-25s?

You're quite right about it, except sijosae part. It's simplifed diamond buffer as you said, but I draw the layout all by myself without seeing his design.

First pair of TR's are BC550/560, and stacked output TR's are 3904/3906.

Ah, I know. But it's much easier to refer this version of db (simple resistors as CCS) as sijosae's db lol.

Yea I was just wondering materials I don't need specific woods... That is creative using a moose hipbone in a stand..

I finally got my Active Ground B22 with S22 from AMB cased up into an ATI 645T case. The case was several inches shorter than I would have liked, and resulted in a tight fit front to back, so I installed an EMI shield between the PSU and AMP sections. It is made from aluminum plate with grounded copper foil on one side, and Mu-Metal on the other.
The heat produced is substantial, so I supplemented the stock corner slots with screened holes in the top....the combination of side slots and top holes works well.
The sound is amazing, and has an absolutely black background like the M3.....very detailed and non-fatigueing listening
