We had an amp shootout in the London Audiocircle
tonight and had a chance to hear 5 chinese amps.

A pair of Bez T3B 300b SETs sounded the best of the
lot, and by some margin.

What speakers did you use in the comparison?

Don't know - two way box on stilts. Dynaudio clone
probably. Seemed to do the job well.



I would be interested also to know what kind of music was
auditioned. SET makes an excellent job of a small range
of material, which dealers always use in demos: vocal and
piano, string quartet etc. Listen to Duke Ellington or
Mike Westbrook and you will probably be *very*
disappointed.


Good point. I listened to a ton of SETs at HE2005 and found exactly
what you describe.



*Ton* of SETs you say...??

Wot? - Are they becoming *popular* or summat??
