Review on Nobsound 6P1: High-quality Vacuum Tube Power Amplifier with Stereo Class A Single-Ended Audio Amp & Headphone Amp Function by Whitney Starvaggi

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nobsound exceeds my expectations. AGAIN!

Let me start by saying that I am a music lover of limited funds. I know where I want to go, but I can't always afford a ticket to go there. This little ($310) sweet amp goes all the way. I placed an order with the earliest estimated delivery date in 24 days. Received in 10 days (shipped by UPS from China) The box was a little patchy as it was completely covered with tape, but the contents were well packed. This is the first week of listening. Revain HD/UHD music streaming. Listen on the B&W DM-302 bookshelf. My first impression was WOW! Nice division. Mids/highs are clear and crisp. The bass was big and true to the instrument. The little B&Ws sounded a lot bigger than they really are. AND ALSO. The lightbulbs aren't even close. The sound got better by the minute. and will continue over the next few weeks. Like the other reviewer, I installed the SUCA Tube-T1 preamp because it has tone controls. I have an old musician's ear and adjust to more mids/highs and less bass. sooo I am very happy and impressed that this is probably one of the cheapest single ended tube amps out there. I will update if anything changes. A celebration. By the way. I said "AGAIN" in the title because I've had a Nobsound MS-10D hybrid amp for 4 years and apart from changing a few tubes it has worked flawlessly.
