Review 1 of 2

Summary:
This valve amp came made up for £1000 in 1992 and has a beautiful midrange and treble that no solid state amp could ever produce. The 25w power output driving my Snell K's is LOUD with plenty of powerful deep base. Used with a good source like my Roksan TMS the detail is amazing. Over bright C.D players are tamed a bit and become easier on the ear.

Strengths:
Brilliant sound quality. Good looks. Fair power output. Good second hand buy.

Weaknesses:
Amp about 10 years old now and swithches getting crackly

Review 2 of 2

Summary:
This is a good valve amp, and represents a decent seconhand buy. The sound is smooth and tames bright sounding CD players. Unfortunately it is discontinued now (I bought mine secondhand). I am interested to find out if anyone knows the valve configuration of this amp, - is it ultra-linear push-pull, or single ended? Also i would like to know if the amp was sold new in made up form or as a kit? Any help would be appreciated.

Strengths:
Very musical sound

Weaknesses:
Limited power
