Don't mean to put the pressure on, Seba, Marching Mule, & whoever else has one on the way, but......I think there's a whole bunch of us waiting with bated breath for quick impressions.

You're right.

Looking forward to the reviews.

I figured that this is close to the cheapest way for me to have a taste of tubes, including DIY options. Before I decide to go tube or SS for my "real" amp.

I need the input from the tube experts.

Is it worth getting the premium tube bundle? Is the WE408A tubes close to the best thing out there?

Or the basic tube is good enough for me to have a taste of it? And I can tube roll later if I were to decide to plunge into it, or even go straight to building a Stacker II or Bijou. If tube isn't for me, I guess it'd be a Beta 22.

when i put mullard ef 95s into my little dot MKII, tubes which are considered among the best out there, the difference in sound quality over the stock chinese ones was not enormous, not noticeable at all at a first listen, very slight....my suggestion is to buy the upgraded version of the I+ with ef92s, because it is only 10$ more, and even with a good deal on ebay a new pair of tubes will not cost you less...plus it is better to always have a spare set of tubes

I doubt that there will be "spare" tubes, I think the basic tubes is replaced with the premium ones.

If $10 get me the EF92, why stop there and not $10 more for the WE408A?

So the stock tubes are Chinese and the EF92 and WE408A are not? If so I guess the prestige factor might be worth it.

I can talk to Dr.yang ,if you guys have any question about Little Dot amp, please send me a message .


I have a few queries - first, what kind of transistors are employed in the output stage? Jfets? Mosfets? Also, what sort of output current does it provide at various impedances? The forum thread lists total output power, but does not break this up into voltage/current.
