RE: chassis design. We're stuck in the snow with one chain on.I fully comprehend the design/functionality aspect.
But this is not a wheel, and I do not appreciate working backwards with this concept, which at this point we are. Physically and cosmetically it's way too similar to existing competition to give any credit for the design except to Mr. Kimura.
Build the acrylic one, or one as creative and show us something new.
> > > As much as he is critisized, he is also admired and there is a tremendous amount of fresh thinking and ingenuity in everything he creates. So once again, I give credit where it's due
===Credit is one thing.
But show respect and honor his design, by coming up with a design from your brain not his. I don't buy this tube and chassis knock off for one minute and I'm loosing patience explaining this. The AMP ZONE intrudes on common sense in that they are TOO similar. That Positive Feedback chose not to review it based on this should have warned you.
Peter, market anxiety, bad judgement and wishfull thinking is IMHO going to unravel some of your obvious talent. Your acrylic, like I said before is miles ahead of AMP-1,,,,,,AESTHETICALLY....To me it's (AMP-1) superb sonic engineering and excecution in a chassis that is (using your own definition) as creative and pleasing as a soda pop can.
Personally the AMP-1 looks sonically to be just what I have looking to add to my tube amp collection as a "summer" amp. No way will I go near it based on the looks alone, I don't care if God licks my ear listening to it.
IMHO your missing a great opportunity. Fire whoever insisted that design was "good enough", "cheap enough" and "market worthy" and get on with your goals. BTW, again, your engineering and assembly is light years ahead of the outside of that amp.
