Pros

Inside, it’s all point-to-point wiring and there are no surface-mount components. Simple screws and nuts hold things together. An alternative rectifier tube is on the way too.

This item has a natural sound that other (solid state) amps can't match. At only 8w, it’s enough volume for my 10’x15’ office. These are highly efficient speakers rated at a sensitivity of 95db.

This amplifier is serviceable. It's an attractive unit.



Cons

Sometimes there are sleepers out there that blow the neche and/or high-end companies away. The only upside is amazon work with you.

Quality


I have quite a bit of experience with this product


The component quality is not the greatest and the assembly while adequate may not always be acceptable


But be aware it’s a product that’s assembled with low quality control


Depending on the quality of the recording you can even hear the attack as the bow engages the strings and sets them vibrating

Price


I like the sound and the price


I did not expect very much for that price

Shipping


Since tubes are shipped in a separate box inside the main shipping container i guess the packer grabbed the wrong tube

Competitiveness


I must commend the seller douk audio

    For years i have been explaining to people why solid state devices cant reproduce sound as accurately as vacuum tubes but i didnt have the amplifier to back up the argument

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I notice from reading reviews that some folks change out all the tubes


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However i didnt feel that was necessary


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I wouldnt attempt to buy those as vintage tubes todayi cant afford a second mortgage


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The 6n9p is the only change and it was more due to impatience than a compelling desire to upgrade
