Has anyone heard these China built AMB Beta 22 type amps?
So I've had my eye out for a B22 for AGES now, I either want to build one or buy one if the price is right. I randomly searched ebay and a few made in China ones popped up for pretty darn cheap! What do you guys think? Has anyone heard them? I'd LOVE some reviews since the price is so...- ady1989

IKEA Hi-Fi Stand (easy, MODULAR and f-in solid) DIY Guide
Hello everyone, I was in need of a good stand and I didn't want to shell out a small fortune for "audiophile" hardware stands. That whole notion can pretty much go **** itself real good.

Sennheiser HD 575 mod completed!
I hope this is the right subforum for this, here goes! I bought a pair of 575's years ago for dirt cheap and I never used them much.

370 DAX transformer heat
Hello, This question is for anyone who used a Hammond 370 DAX in a build - how hot are they supposed to get? I mounted mine on its side and after an hour and a half of amp use it gets almost too hot to touch. I'd guess around 60* C. Is this normal or am I going to damage something by running...- ady1989

Hello, I'm interested in knowing what to pair my (work in progress) Bijou with. Budget is irrelevant, what tends to sound best with this amp? I listen to a lot of classic rock, metal, some electronic. Thanks in advance!- ady1989
