Always make comparisons folks

It is the only way we have to really know what sounds better...observe the Quad smashed by the tube:

Nautilus?

The speaker you are looking is nice...i had the chance to listen to it.

Looks like B&W Nautilus, or sort of clone.

Yep... strange speaker design.

I have listened to a 686....and sounded warm and nice...but they look strange....in the picture they looks so strange (to me) as the wall made of glass bricks you see at the bottom.

[destroyer X]

People go building...this one will remove scratches from

the aluminium surface using metalic brush and will apply Oxalic Acid finishment.

His case will become more white alike colour...it is already nice...you gonna see in the future the results.

Aluminium is manually sanded using references alike tracks or rails..to guarantee scratches will be same direction...them sanded with smaller sandpaper grain (360), them steel brush then chemical attack using Acid.

These are before pictures..in the future you gonna see after pictures

Carlos

Do not build a Dx Blame ST if you have another amplifier you believe it is good

Or be prepared to be disappointed with your old amplifier.

Want to continue to believe the old one is good?.... do not listen the Dx Blame.....keep your old opinion and be happy... defend yourself to the tragic reality the Blame can beat almost all amplifiers. (almost is # different than all amplifiers)

Read "Blameless" philosophy..what made Doctor Self design the one...and i think i made sonically even better...observe the idea is unbeatable...an amplifier not to include or excluse anything in your sound reproduction....what can be better than that?.... was that or wasn't that what we were searching for?

About preamplifiers...my point of view.....give yourself a chance to listen your amplifier without preamplifiers..the come here and say if uncle charlie is rigth or not:

YouTube - Dx Amp... to use or not to use pré amplifier

regards,

Carlos

 

[destroyer X]

My dear friend Ranga Dinesh have asked me what preamplifier to use

together the Dx Blame St...i answered NONE!

But also i have pointed him this one i have tested that have not killed sonics:

Nabuco Eletrônica - Kits de Áudio Hi-Fi

This kit with a Burr and Brown chip..as you can use a socket and select the "sonic signature" you want.

Ranga Dinesh sent a picture...nice guy.... he is the third from left to rigth.

I like it too , Carlos. already had "strong emotions" from my prototype. Will give you credit. Can't wait to listen to it at 200W+.
OS

 

[destroyer X]

Emotions is what matters in our lifes

Enjoy... what amplifier is this one?...nice board.

Is this your Blame style one?.... i like the board.... this simple little circuit (blameless) is something magic...yours will sound awsome.

In this site you can download some nice live performance...i use to search for FLAC files to use them:

Here you can find something interesting too:

My prefered ones are here...from Ryan Adams.... listen your amplifiers, full volume playing Magnolia and Easy plateau and let your soul travel to unknown dimensions, half way from the Paradise to the heaven.
