Hi all,
thought I'd share this home made tube amp that I've had here recently for a quick test, in my bi-amp setup with the 4343s for the MF/HF/UHF part. Would like to hear a bit about it - options to use or some background from the tube knowledgeables here, is anyone familiar with that stuff.
It sounds very good to my ears and surprisingly outperformed the solid state power amps in my current setup - a very rich and warm sound particularly through the horns, very detailed. Its somehow cool although the finish seems to leave a bit to be desired. As you can see its labeled Packard Bell and using a EL84, thats pretty much all I know about it. Maybe I'm wrong but isn't that one of those console amps that I've read about over at AK, and it seems these get more and more appreciation on the market lately?
Last not least, in case I'd get over the look and wanted to buy it as an improvement for the use described above, I'd like to learn a bit about the worth - where do such things range in connoisseurs eyes.
So, in short what do we have here? As always thanks in advance for any input.
