I know this amp is Chinese and cheap however the Musical Paradise MP301MK3 I just got a few weeks back has got me hooked on tubes. So far I am extremely satisfied with it.Plenty of power which I was worried about before I got it,I am not sure how long it takes for tubes to break in and the whole amp to settle in, but so far I have nothing negative to report. I am just loving the sound and have been listening no less than 3-4 solid hours per day. So far Rickie Lee Jones,Norah Jones,Susan Tedeschi and a few others have never sounded better, rich and warm,totally enjoyable. I do know I WILL NOT be purchasing another SS amp again. The next item I want to change is my phono preamp to a tube one. Is there a kit out that anyone can suggest? I want to keep the cost to no more than $200.
