This is a very nice opportunity to own a very nice amp! It is has a very nice feel to it, with well made parts. The PSU is a 30VA which at 12 Volts it translates into a very high current capabilities.

I also understand that Fang and his designers/engineers are working on a couple of tweaks. Op-Amp socket to allow rolling, and volume pot improvements at about the 0 level. Both should further enhance an already excellent amp.

Good luck to all (specially whomever wins it).

Wow, an amp giveaway? You guys are being too good
