Hi-Fi tube amp kit from China

I have been playing around with this some. I tried a set of Denon speakers that sounded pretty good, but about 10 minutes later I started hearing scratching and distortion. Oh boy - wassagoinon? Thought maybe I failed an output tube or something. Well ... after checking some things I found the foam on the woofers went to pieces! Whew! So, I grabbed a set of 8"Yamaha speakers and connected. I was surprised! So far that little amp rocks! I have it connected to a cheapie portable CD player, and had to add an EQ. She's flat without some kind of tone control. Has plenty of volume, more than I need anyway Not the best preamp setup, but something to test it with. Next I'm going to try it with my old Sanyo (please don't laugh, these babys sound great!) 12" speakers and may power up my Dyna preamp and see what I get. I have (had) some nicer speakers, but the foam disease has gotten all of them, including my favorite Cerwin Vegas. So, I will use what I have.
More to come...
