Right now best bang for the buck the New Jolida Black ice
it has a nice meter right on top easy biasing which is more accurate then auto bias which averages , all the heart - the transformers use very good German transformers , and very nice looking in Indiana great pricing, for more money Ayon
better then Prima Luna any day of the week. I have owned both
Ayon is high quality built in Austria ,not China and a Tube USA gives very. Good deals on them.prima Luna pricing has gone up
a lot since upscale Audio has been putting ads up for years ,
land in part reviews are political for sure.i owned a Audiostore
and have many sad stories of very good companies going belly up
because they could not afford say $50k for advertising ,which
would give them ratings and good exposure. Keep that in mind
look. For reviews from around the globe and forums to see how
good build quality is customer service ,as well as longevity.
roughly only 25% actually goes into the product that is why many times like myself I mod them ,or have them upgraded with premium parts , upscale audio brags about Solen capacitors which in reality are low average at a Best !! A 6 rating out of 15 on top grading capacitor scale .i hold mfg accountable , most use brass connectors which suck vs gold over copper sonicly as well as conductivity keep that in mind .a very noticable upgrade in sonics ,look at your IEC power cord input no name $2 sink brass crap, when for a less then $15 wholesale you can install a gold over Copper Furutech 5x less. Resistance to start which is a Hufe bottle neck and robs low level detail. This shows they don’t care
these little things should Allways be included most people would gladly pay the extra $1-200 for Gold Copper IEC,st least 1 pair rca,
loudspeaker s and amp terminals same thing for $150 night and day better I put the WBT. In myself ,it’s about time companies
start stepping up !! Thatis how a Modwright got his start by providing top quality parts in key areas , in loudspeakers 90%
are substandard Xover parts .i have 20+ years of experience ,even in $$ name brands ? I have called and emails several , a few have listened, others don’t care.
