I wouldn't write off Chinese "stuff" if you are looking for a high value
product. I just purchased a Chinese Ming DA 2A3 preamp for $1149 that easily beat my $6000 CAT Ult MK2. It was recommended to me by an audiophile that had previously used a $14000 VTL 7.5. Once he heard it he sold the VTL. I will either sell the CAT or keep it for a backup.
The Chinese are producing some veery good gear for a song. If you prefer to pay more for less sonic quality than don't try the Chinese "stuff".
By the way, they have a 30 audition with full refund minus 3% and shipping. Even with the stock tubes they will trounce anything in their price range. Will the best available NOS tubes they will compete with cost no object products. I run this pre with the CAT JL2 into Avalon Osiris speakers.
