Been looking at the schematics. Wow. It's even more complicated than a Blackheart.

Two 12ax7's, one of them used for the tonestack and an EL84. Power tube seems to be hot-biased. There's a send and return.

I see a "Marshall" coupling stage (470k in parallel with 470pf). So I guess it's not hard to guess what voicing this amp has.

Funny...the thing has a Baxandall type tone stack, but instead of pots, it's got fixed resistors. Like setting your tone controls to a certain setting and gluing them there. Tells me, the thing is ready to be modded to a TMB amp. It's got tonestack recovery already !

What's this ? The thing has Negative feedback ! Hmmm..Fender-ey smoothness...on a Marshall voiced amp ? Hmmm... that's easy to disable for more grit and gain.

Okay I'm sold. The thing has oodles of modding potential.

when it comes to these amp thing modding it...nosebleed..make a bamf version//

Si machinehead. I think he gave up, sobrang busy ata sya sa work. Sayang ano. Who wants to form a company, lets bring Chinese amps to the Philippines!

Hey BAMF, Im back! Yea I've been busy with work kaya di ko naasikaso itong mga KLD amps. But since I'm now in the trading business, I might just be able to bring these here. I'll try to work something out next year. Here's a a video demo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2n08Igw6Bu0. I have to apologize for the lousy playing though.  :-D

@bryan - E-Wave amps sound pretty good for the price. How can I get in touch with Mr. Chen? Thanks. :)
