Clone DarTZeel amps?


Has anyone actually heard or bought a Chinese so called clone DarTZeel NHB 108 or the higher powered NHB 268? I would be interested to hear views re SQ but only from those who have actually heard them.

@arafiq 100%!!! in all aspects. 

 

You get what you pay for. Anything else is wishful thinking.

 

I think the whole cosmetic clone thing reflects the values of the buyer...in almost every way.

Even if a clone manufacturer were to produce a genuine clone, they haven't paid for the R&D and the IP that is embodied in the original, or the marketing and other overheads required to establish and support a brand. But even accounting for that a "bit perfect" clone would probably not have a sufficient discount to persuade people to buy it versus the real thing.

My experience ( >50 years active in audio and music and fortunately a darTZell owner) has me agreeing with arafiq

Note "clones" - even at quick glance - reveal significant variations to one another and in particular do not replicate authentic darTZell.
