i am sure u love your MKV ,i already had it for 1 month and it sounds superb,( compared to my Lehmann audio or even creek) and have very good driving power for a solid state amp. i love it the first time i plug it in. hope you get yours soon

hey Skylab, thank you for your review on the amps, especially on the minibox-e. its truly a good investment for me, i listen to it everyday . i also have another minibox , called the CL. its very small, smaller then the tomahawk. but with good sound too thanks again.

Gary is a great guy with good service, the PA2V2 is my very 1st amp, and also alot of my mates 1st amp. its really a worthy investment for a portable amp,and not to mention the battery life is fantastic. Even thou , i have around 7 other portable amps nowadays, i still uses PA2V2 daily at work.

Hi all! can anyone recommand me a desktop solidstate amp which sound like the minibox-E , (with wide soundstage and a good amount of bass) i dont need the extra bass switch though on the desktop amp. thanks in advance.

Hi there ADD, i just bought the AD797 from a hongkong dude off ebay. there is also OPA627 on 2:1 adapter for sale there, but since u already use it (AD797) , i am confident enough to upgrade to this AD797 opamp for my cute beyond.

thanks for the info on burninwave.com , now i can burn my headphone faster

u can try the MEIER AUDIO - CORDA ARIETTA , if you don't want to exceed your budget

and also when burning in an amp, do we need to plug in a set of headphone in order for the burn in to work? thanks in advance
