Do chinese tube preamp/amp clones interest you?


Hi all,

looks like there a quite a few clones of almost iconic gear available, e.g. this is an example

Have you ever wondered how they sound, are tempted to try them out, maybe even get it as a kit?

Or better even, got them and can report back?

Inquiring minds would like to know,

cheers

I would not buy it just so it is not only a picture, as audio2design implied, illustrating a brick that may or may not come in the mail.

I heard that Melody amplifiers, Made in China, are fantastic deal and match Tekton Moabs wonderfully.
My buddy bought one Chinese power amplifiers and it worked for a while before it broke. He paid $200 to have it fixed and actually now likes it some. In looking at it, it is nice looking but internally it is not made well. It won’t compete with better designed amps but there are plenty of amps that I don’t consider good quality.

Happy Listening.
I still have my ARC LS15 pre amp that l bought in 1995 and it's still working find
No China knock off for me!
Miller how much steel did your boyfriend purchase from China via shell companies? 
Just a question. Do those here who object to buying Chinese goods (not just fakes, but any at all) make sure that there are no Chinese parts inside of the non-Chinese goods that they buy? Because if a product has Chinese parts inside of it then Chinese companies are benefiting.
