I feel that Cwlondon is completely out of line with his attack. In the future however, Hifisoundguy, I would advise you to use a question mark in the heading of your post rather than within your post. The Dussun V8i is a very good integrated amplifier. I auditioned it and it is definitely one of the best buys in audio. It is a little to the warm and smooth side but definitely a bargain for it's power and build quality. If it had separate pre-outs to connect a subwoofer I would have kept it.
Marakanetz: I thought it was subwoofer compatible when I purchased it; Since the unit I got had to be shipped from China it took what seemed like forever for me to get it. And as you put it, "these chinese guys" at least the ones at Dussun, will not just customize whatever you want as far as I know. Although, based on my recommendation to the distibutor and his recommendation to Dussun they will likely add a seperate pre-out for use with a subwoofer to increase the marketability of the unit. Of course, I recently read that you can put an outboard crossover between the pre out and main in and add a subwoofer that way. But before that I was adviced by knowldegeable audiophiles that putting anything in the signal between the pre out and main in would result in sonic degradation.
