I just had a look at yamamoto web ,after being some time off and spotted this new valve beauty.Finally missing ring appeared after controversial start with unexpected ss design in the first ever y's dac :wink:.




Well ,there always 've been a room for diy creativity inside ,but now the God blessed a child .

It's almost twin looking to the older brother ,being however more beautiful ,due to the couple of nice triodes .

hi Komi

yes I know it looks awful.
but the parts selection is some times surprising ,not always most expensive parts sound the best .

anyway ,not so bad if you compare to other jap stuff - probably different sense of aesthetic ( watch SHINDO :).

i MUST SAY THAT I hated my yammy switch in amp at the beginning ,due to it looked exactly twin to my night lamp one my desk ,but I got used to after few weeks ,and it's easy to forgive when device really sound good.

Hi Froz

really thanks for that ,strange but my browser did not found it ,when I at once tried ,yes you right it looks really well done ,but it's a typical high quality yammy standard to which all a brand users are used to .
