Zkit1 ZKit4+5 sound unbelivable
07/22/13 at 00:37:32
 
Just finish ZKIT 4+5 and I've ben listening for the last 5 hours
using my Zen KIT1 .
Wow my Cornwalls have never sounded this good.
They are 1979 and I have had them since 84 Wow!!! I can't
believe the difference from solid state to tubes.
Steve is absolutly corect about that first watt with these speakers I don't need any more. They sounds plenty loud and the details are unbelievable.
Thanks steve for making this available to some one like me.
I'm sure I'm not the only one to have ben able to enjoy tube sound just because of you.
Some thing I may never have had a chance to experience. Please keep up the good work and thank you so very much for making the Schematics available.
I hope some day I can purchace a completed amp from you.

Yes, that's damn cool!  Did you do the case work yourself?

I have a brother that does woodworking
He help me out. The wood used is a piece of a pallet that I picked up about 10 years ago that came from Brazil.
I have no idea what the wood is.
But at the time I like the look of it and figured that I would find some  use for it. I wish I had more of it.
It is very hard and I had to glue the back together to have
enough. the finish is just urethane.
