    Review and Measurements of Purifi 1ET400A Amplifier

    Guys someone ordered the vtv stereo amp and got it shipped? https://vacuumtubevalues.com/product/27564/ Any thing that I should consider? The lack of buffer will result in lower volume? (but better sinad?) My speakers are 90db and my listing room is pretty small.

    DIY Purifi Amp builds

    I got an old pc case that I tought to cut the base just because it sound cool, I'll check it thickness but I guess I'll just get aluminum plate. I got thermal paste for my pc builds so I guess it will work. I didn't look the doc (I was pretty sure I'll get nc400 amp from Netherlands as I am...

    Guys if I want to build an amp based on the EVAL1 kit, what else do I need for basic configuration? Smps1200 power supply, electric input plug, and a case? Am I missing something? BTW, can I build a case from soft wood?

    How should I split my budget?

    The DAC will be connected to a pc, so I dont need extra connectivity, is the matrix sound better? I saw it has better sinad. I couldnt find a review about the amp you suggested. Is it better to get a stereo amp over two monoblocks? I dont understand why two nc400 monoblocks are cheaper than the...

    How much money do you have invested in this "hobby?"

    Guys how would you suggest to split the budget for audio equipment for stereo? I have great speakers IMO, and omni directional microphone, nothing else. Want to spend around 2K$ for dac, pre and amp, not sure how much to invest in each. I will use a pc as a source if that matter.
