RE: I'm with TK

Thanks for your reply. Good one.

At this point, I don't think I'll be getting a Chinese amp directly from China. I have been looking at Gemtune as they have stock in the USA. It's under $400, 2-day prime free shipping from the Zon so there seems to be some safety net happening.

This purchase, as soon as some equipment of mine is liquidated (need a Sennheiser HD800 or a Woo Audio WA6 made in Brooklyn?, will be a dip of the toe in the low power tube amp world, maybe driving some Tekton Lores. I want to hear this combo in my room but I'll try the speakers first and then if I like them, an amp.

Just stumbled on your AA ad and it was certainly intriguing. I date back to the Fisher 400 receiver (1964) and then the Citation II, Dynaco ST-70, Atma-Sphere MA1 MKII's, Jolida BRC302 (problems every couple of years). I still am an innocent simply because I am not technically astute.

Not sure I'm ready for a home-made power amp (where's my back up?!!!) but your build certainly seems first class and 8WPC just might do it.

I wish you the best with your sale (I'll keep an eye out!)and I appreciate your considered response.
