    Bought from here not long ago at $550, still prefer the sound from tube amp, I’m looking for the same price I paid for.
    There are some scratches on top and bottom but nothing serious. Thanks.

    Friends and contributor only, I will keep it if I cannot find a good home for it.

    A brief impression about dsha1 from myself only, the best part is the mid-low frequency. On my hd650 and hd800, I can feel really punch from the low frequency which I cannot find from other amps. It is a warm amp with very good 3d soundstage, maybe this is caused by nickel output transformer. The mid frequency I think it's a bit blended to mid-low part but still very good. Compare to a tube amp(super7), the mid-high frequency(I can only hear up to 15k) is not that attractive, the micro-dynamic is not as good as super7.

    Folks, this is a great amplifier at a great price!

    I was half-expecting the second post, above, to be SOLD! This is kind of the anti-BW2, shifting its priorities but not too far. For those who might find the bloom of BW2 too much, this one is a little sharper. And if you have a Grado, be prepared for this amplifier to change your perspective entirely.

    Can you share a little bit more about what you don't find attractive about the mid-highs?

    I will try to describe the feeling, from super7, you can feel more airy and open at mid to high which I cannot hear from dsha1. From dsha1 I feel it's more punch.
