@arafiq the X200 is the middle brother and 100 watts.…..It landed here today and the build quality is exquisite.

A1 shipping material and packed to go well overseas.

Manual is clear, concise  and well written.
Za Za is burning in right now with Jimi Hendrix CD on repeat. Will not sit down and do any critical listening until Sunday at least. Will say this out of the Box it blows the Blackhawk away but so did my Quicksilver Integrated.
More to come best $6000.00 I have spent in a while.
Give Constantin a call he is knowledgeable and sells some kick ass gear.

Thanks for the update! I chatted with Constantin for an hour or so a few weeks back, really interesting and knowledgeable guy. In my hunt for a tube pre, the 204 is up against a PrimaLuna Dialogue, and a vintage Luxman CL35. Have any experience with either brand as they relate to the new Qualiton?
@earflynn --

That's some high praise indeed! Hopefully you'll share more info once you've had a chance to do some critical listening. But so far, looks like you're really impressed! BTW, when you were doing your research, did you look into Qualiton's A series -- A50i and A20i? What led you towards the X200? I'm wondering if the X200 is more in the sweet spot. I will definitely reach out to Constantin tomorrow. Thank you for the update. 

@cejohnston -- while I cannot tell you about the Luxman, what I can tell you is that a friend of mine recently got the Qualiton A50i and previously owned the Primaluna Dialog HP as well as the Blackhawk. According to him, there's simply no competition. Qualiton is competing at a higher level with the likes of Jadis, Octave, etc. From what I understand Audio Hungary builds and test almost everything in-house.
