In Reply to: Re: What are the " typical lush/liquid/sweet 300b amps"? posted by doughter on November 28, 2006 at 14:14:26:
There is one more amp that has not been covered, but it does not fall under the "sweet" category. Rather, it would be a "liquid" one.Checkout the Yamamoto A-09 300B SET Amplifier. The high price tag ($3,950) can be somewhat offset if you buy the kit instead of tye assembled unit. The transformers are not Tango or Electraprint, but instead they are C-core wound and supposed to be top notch.

I have a Yamamoto A-09 300B SET on order. I should have it in a week or two. I will post my first impressions when I get it.
Jose that is a great looking amp. I could never find one person who wrote about owning or to have listened to that amp. Tons of stuff on the A-O8S but never that one. Now that I think of it probably Brian should know more about it. They do post a Chinese review but it is not translated.Have you heard it (you mention a liquid sound)? If so and if by chance you have heard the A-O8S, would you say there is a Yamamoto house sound. I read here Srajan Eben describe the A-O8S as souding "spritzy". So if Yamamoto kept that same light airy liveliness sound and gave it a little more meat with the 300b, this could be a great amp.
No, I have not heard any of the Yamamoto amps but I am ordering an A-08S after the holidays as a belated Christmas present for myself.I personally like the tone of the 45s and have VERY efficient speakers, so I am looking for ward to it. Right now I am living with a Moth Audio 2A3S and a Jeff Korneff SET45.
