Does anyone recognize this amp? It looks like a typical Chinese amp, but I'm initially impressed by the fact that it seems to be all-tube, not a hybrid, and it uses a tube rectifier and seems to have a choke in the power supply (and it's cheap!).
I guess I should also ask if anyone has any experience with competitors.
Thanks,
Pete

There are like a billion of these cheap Chinese variants floating around for sale. I agree, this kit looks a bit better than average with the tube rectification and the CLC PS. It is cheaper than my 2 output tubes so I am have tempted to give it a try. I just wish it used more common tubes. But so cheap it would be a fun amp to build up over a long holiday weekend, especially if it it is snowing outside.
