Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

Just be aware that he listens only to classical music and ..

He is into small (but he calls pure) amps. I too agree that small amps are easier to make closer to perfect, but small amps compromise speaker choices. And that speakers are the worst in the whole hi-fi chain to get right.

My preference is to choose the best speakers, then work out what amps I need. Ultimately IMO I get closer to what I want. I don't understand the concept of having the best and purest 5 watt amplifier that can only drive "highly distorted" (only in my opinion - I know some people love them) horn loaded speakers.

Other than that, I find him a good alternative read. He does get into a jam sometimes when he reinvents definitions to describe sound. A bit pedantic in that way.

Cheers
William
