SimpTronic Tech MUZISHARE X7 4KT88 2-Channel Vacuum Tube Integrated Amplifier with MM Phono AMP & Remote (100V-240V)

I have this integrated amp for threee weeks now and have to say I'm quite surprised by it. Everything I want in a tube amp, this amp has--tube rectifier, adjustable fixed bias, Ultralinear/Triode switch on the fly, headphone output, and preamp pass-through. On top of that, it even has MM phono stage. It sounds wonderful with wide soundstage and good imaging. The amp is dead quiet with no tube noise nor transform hum. The build and finish are admirable given the asking price. I have my eyes on Muzishare X10 as the next amp to get.

This amp has features you just can’t get at this price with this sound quality. I run it in triode mode and it still has plenty of power to push my power hungry Martin Logan motion 20s ( I think they are 88db speakers). I I replaced a Yamaha AV flagship, which sounds good, but I have been desperate to get back to tubes. I have been very pleased with the great detail and sound quality of this amp. I may try to roll in some el34s, as my speakers would compliment them. Sure, if I had another 5k, I would by a prima Luna , but I am very satisfied. Update. I have had the amp for almost a year meow, and still love it. I lost a tube, so I bought some cryo KT120s from upscale audio and HOLY COW! Larger sound stage, more volume, frequency response, highs and lows. Bass hits harder AND with more clarity over the entire spectrum. I emailed the manufacturer and they said bias them the same as the 88s. The 120s lack some of the warmth of the 88s, But what is gained is sooooo worth it. Mullard 12au7s will give you the warmth back.

Had it for 4 years now. Solid quality and sound exactly as expected

This unit punches way above it's price would suggest. Very good quality in fit and finish, painted surfaces are clean and beautiful. Sound quality is great and clean and clear. I do recommend letting it run for many hours before critical listening. With saying that I was impressed the moment I started it. My other audio friends are impressed as well. Quick shipping and the seller is excellent and super nice. I have worked with them in the past with other purchases.

After just a few hours of break-in this amp gave me that warm and only slightly fuzzy feeling. This is a very good amp for taking the bite out of horn loaded speakers without sacrificing much detail. The sound stage is a bit more "present" than my solid state set-up because the very faint reverb of tube amps simulates live concert sound. Voices now are just muted enough to be listenable without any strain but also with the sense that whatever little things might be mistier are not worth missing. I m also looking forward eventually to "rolling" into some higher end tubes, but the KT-88's are plenty good. Highly recommended especially for the price. Update - A mere 20 hours of tube run-in have revealed great dynamics and have eliminated listening fatigue in the higher registers with my Klipsch Forte 3's. Detail in the mids and highs is impressive - I am hearing little things not heard before.

The sound of this unit is overwhelming if you think about to get a nice tube amp around this price this could be one of the best On my opinion triode mode sounds better. Enjoy it
