Hi every one ! i would like to get some information regarding this amp. How much do they cost ? are they worth it ? and what modifications can you do to improve the sound ?

It's about $450, unless you buy it on their "First Tuesday" special, in which case they sell it for about $380, or so, with no 30 day return allowed. I've been thinking about trying it also... except that it reportedly is not so good with low impedence phones (i.e. Grados). |

Specifically, I heard faint electronic 'noise' with nothing playing at zero volume no matter where in my house I tried. In addition, floating the ground failed to alleviate the issue. Other than that I was happy with it. One other thing to keep in mind is that they run VERY hot. The volume knob used to get uncomfortably hot to the touch at times. Happy Listening! |
