Actually It Wasn't As Bad As I Expected Out of the Box...

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 

I got my Bravo V2 in the mail yesterday (took only 7 days to ship from Hong Kong to Chicago) and I plugged it in and tried it out. To be honest... it kind of sucked as soon as I started playing music. Very muffled treble, some crackle, and channel imbalance issues. So I got frustrated with it, left it burning in overnight, and just tried it again this morning. The treble is a HUGE improvement and the bass is a lot more tight. I actually enjoy the sound coming out of this thing with the stock tube. Honestly, it sounds above its price class. Now, I do plan on doing the MOSFET and crosstalk mods, along with an improved set of capacitors and some tube rolling to see if I can squeeze $200+ sound out of this little bugger. I do see the potential in it.

You might want to mention what "it" is.

Ebay.  

and you'll find them under an assortment of names:  bravo/indeed/muse/ect.  They're all relatively the same design. (quality of parts varies between branding+model) This thread harbors a lot of information on them.
