Hi T-Amp Sifus,

Just to share my humble experience with u all.

In Nov 08,I finally decided to take a jump in into hi-fi things (entry level).

Almost "jump out" again when I see the price tag in hifi shop tongue.gif

Nowadays economy demands to be prudent but cannot tahan the poison anymore.

Then set my mission : to built below RM1K hifi setup (cdp+amp+speaker+no brand interconnects&speaker cable).

My friends laugh at me & says it is impossible!!!

And the hunt started :

Early Jan 09- Manage to get CDP Sansui X-310 (NOS) = RM300

Mid Jan 09- Bought PSB Alpha Bookshelf Speaker (used) = RM300
- Speaker Cable + RCA2RCA I/connects = RM60

After countless hours of searching, I found the review of T-Amp in TNT then in LYN forum (this thread). A bit sceptical at first but the price attract me RM60. drool.gif

But shocking.gif chip only aa?

I am no modder or DIYer blush.gif . So for safety purpose tongue.gif I decided to order complete built T-Amp from bro xtorm.

Finally have it on last week wednesday with a price that really fit my tight budget

Results -

1) First impression - Clarity, great vocals & treble, but overall quite harsh, lack of bass (some of my cd are hard rock & metals)

2) After 30 hours running in
- harshness start to dissapear
- very detail in instruments & vocal sounds, start to hear the sound of some instrument that I vr heard b4 biggrin.gif
- no complaints on classical/neo classical movie soundtrack, feels like those chambers orchestra playing infront of me tongue.gif
- the bass on pop & hard rock cds starts to improve.
- As for metal cds have to wait untill finish running in 100 hours but bro xtrom told me should be realistic on 5W blush.gif

anyway I am glad to take "plunge" in this T-Amp. really happy for what i have now. At this moment la.

Wah TA2020 with 25W ? drool.gif

my running in almost reach 50hours tongue.gif

but I am quite curious on this matter hmm.gif

I notice nowadays once i switch on the amp and start play the cd, the first 2 songs normally sounds "flat", means that lack of treble, clarity etc. I am talking even on those acoustic songs

But the third songs onwards, it sound much nicer, more details & so on like what i describe before. Now for some good recordings and especially when volume at 8 or 9 o clock, even the bass are quite solid cool.gif

So the Q's are

a)Is it the amp need some time to warm up once it is switch on ?

b) Does good recording in the cd are important? Most of my imported version cd's (international artiste) sounds really good but the some of the local pressed cd tak ada oomph la ?
