Hello,
i am planing on getting this amp soon. I am not very good at soldering and i saw that some of you guys made some upgrades on the caps.
The tubes will be of course rolled later!
I currently have a nobsound ns08e amp and i plan to buy this one as a sort of upgrade.
So my question would be now.... is it worth getting this amp as a "upgrade" for my current one for what it costs (175 euro on amazon)?
thank you!
I see the nobsound ns080e is entry level, for those curious about the tube sound, though I don't have any experience of it. Regardless of that I can say that far from being simply an upgrade, the APPJ could be an amp you keep with you because it's so good you will never need anything else. It has several features that push it up to the top level, others on this thread will be able to tell you about. I won't go on because I have the speaker version of the amp but right from the start I was impressed with the amp. The caps upgrade just made it TOTL, and is a very easy mod that someone could do for you if you don't want to.
For the money you can't go wrong. Hope that helps!
Edit: My speaker amp has had good reviews from 6Moons amongst others!
