Fezz Audio Omega Lupi

[funkyfish]

Hi, I'm new to the tube game and I wonder if the Omega lupi can perform like TOTL tube amps?

There are not that many reviews, so hard to tell. But one impression is here in this thread

I have a question. Can I use 110v-120v version at the 220v country? Is it okay to do that?

No. You need a step-down transformer for that.

TMR Audio is selling it at $850 so I am interested...

Thank you for the impressions, @Strayngs! That matches pretty well what I heard also about other Fezz amps so far. Rather modern and neutral sounding than very tubey.

I was looking into getting a complete system (amplifier-wise) by Fezz Audio. One reason was that their phono pre-amps have a voltage switch which would be very practical for me as I will be moving from Europe to the US. Fezz confirmed that they would integrate a voltage switch also into the other amps for me and asked me to clarify everything with the german distributor. I contacted him but did not really get any information from him, he didn't even reply to my last email. I was also in contact with two Fezz dealers in my hometown who both said they would get back to me, but also never heard back from them. Utterly disappointing. I absolutely love the look of the evolution series and I think I would also like them sound-wise, but I really don't want to deal with something like that if I am willing to spend almost 10k for 3 amps…

Wait, do they have a voltage switch? Where is it? Is it only in Evolution version?

No, only the phono pre-amp has one unfortunately (which I think only exists in the Evolution series).

At $850 that's an incredible value. I think it's a good value at full price.

I agree, that's a pretty good deal (if you don't mind the look of the old amps). I think they have too many of the Legacy amps left and want to get rid of them. Crazy that they are selling them for 2000$(!) less than the Evolution amps even though they are technically identical.

Hi all, just picked up the last one from TMR. Anyone do any tube rolling with this amp?
