Does the name GainClone ring any bells

I thank you for your reply and info. I did do a little research with the links supplied from the seller. I even registered with diy audio to see what's going on in that camp. The pics provided show a really nice build and with few parts as you mentioned. Sonics are the order of the day for me however and without a source to audition its a little tough to make a decision. The seller has decribed the sound of this piece and with my musical tastes(acoustic jazz,gospel,vocals)it seems that this might be something I could live with. Stay tuned.

Darkmoebuis I thank you for the added comments and info. I took the plunge and put a bid on the amp which is a intergrated piece(50 watts). Don't have to worry about a pre. This unit only has one set of inputs and I do have a NAD tuner as well as my Philips sacd player as a source. I also plan on reaquiring a pair of Infinity primus 150 spkrs. They are 8ohm rated very detailed and are I believe 89db. I'll keep you informed if I win and how everything works out. Good listening! Bret

Wow, You are the man. Not knowing enough about this piece puts me in the dark somewhat(no pun intended). I wonder if the upgrades you mentioned can be allocated into this amp. It seems with the upgrades the one input and the dual-mono one can have with these kits $100 is about all I will go. Many thanks to you Dark and Gmood for the posts. Stay tuned, Bret

I'm a tweeker by nature and if something can be modded I'm in. A good pwr supply is the heart to any component as you know. If I win this bid I'll probably start with the upgraded pwr supply you mentioned. I still have a soldering iron among my bag of tricks so adding some of these features will be interesting and fun. Keep in touch Darkmoebius.
